Default $55 Party 2 table, KQs hand

I had won a couple of recent pots preflop w/o showing. BB in this hand is somewhat tight.

Party Poker No-Limit Hold'em Tourney, Big Blind is t200 (5 handed) FTR converter on zerodivide.cx

UTG (t3390)
MP (t8690)
Hero (t2660)
SB (t3440)
BB (t1820)

Preflop: Hero is Button with K[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], Q[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img].
2 folds</font>, Hero raises to t550, 1 fold, BB raises to t1820, Hero calls t1370.

Flop: (t3740) J[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], 6[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], 8[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] (2 players)

Turn: (t3740) T[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] (2 players)

River: (t3740) 5[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] (2 players)

Final Pot: t3740

After my raise and his push, it's a pretty easy call getting 2 to 1. However, do you push preflop, raise more than to t550, raise less than to t550, limp, or fold, instead?

Default Re: $55 Party 2 table, KQs hand

Since you are pot committed to call a reraise, I would just push. KQs is strong 3-handed, but not strong enough that you want action.

There are some advantages to the way you play it, since you have position on the button and the smaller raise may appear to represent a stronger hand.

In general with the stack sizes, you are better off pushing, limping, or miniraising if you want to play, rahter than mnaking a raise that pot commits you.
