Just a quick topic. Curious what you guys do with KJ early position at a 10 person table? Can't raise it really because such a good chance of KQ/AJ smooth calling and you have no clue where you are on the flop. Do you just limp? fold? This hand has always bothered me.

I'd say I'm tighter than most, but normally I fold it...

I think you fold this hand almost always from early position. K-J is one of those danger hands that can get you in a lot of trouble. If you raise it and get re-raised, then you're probably dominated (such as by A-K, K-K, or even A-A). Maybe every once in a while you can limp or raise this just to change it up but it's probably going to be a -ev play overall.

EASY fold in EP 10max.
I would start opening it between MP2 and CO depending on the players.

Fold it dude. You're gonna get into way too many awkward spots with that hand to make it profitable opening it in EP.

you can play it if you really want to but don't be relying on the top pair value in a big pot. Lot easier to just fold imo.

Only time I'll ever open this is AM-early afternoon when my table is a bunch of 5-10/3-6 nits. Otherwise it's just -EV.
