KQ>>??

[zaxx19]

I keep seeing KQ pop up in huge pots that are well raised preflop...

Is KQ the new AQ?? Can these donkeys muck it?? Do you play KQ for a raise usually?? Under which circumstances??

[mythrilfox]

No. I don't. Too easily dominated. Possibly suited, with position, against a player w/ loose raising standards. Out of position, however, KQ is a fairly easy dump.

offsuit is worthless in EP and EMP. MP I may open raise with it if I'm feeling frisky. LP it's worth an attempt to steal the blinds/gain initiative if the game style permits.

Suited is another story. Multiway, like any suited connector, it's a good hand to try to stack someone with. The key, however, and this is especially true when calling raises with it heads up, is having enough feel to get away from a top pair hand, lest you be the one getting stacked. Play it like 67s in these situations, don't get all your money in with TPGK, that's a donk play.


One ? would probably suffice.

It is pretty good for a raise at 6 max. And to call a raise from a LAG, even.

[Burno]

Si. Unless someone says 6 max, my default is to give full ring advice.

I'm constantly amazed by how much more value you guys give to suited ness. I don't think that they being suited adds that much.

I raise this almost everytime in 6 max except in the blinds with multiple limpers.

If I am playing a 2+2 style table, I even raise it in the blinds.

I never call a PFR with them.

How bout the ever popular min pf rz?

[amoeba]

wtf?

why would I do that?
