 I have been trying to figure out how to play this hand. I can never feel confident enough to raise with it, yet i know it is a good hand. Some advice would be much apreaciated.

I'll usually raise 2-4x BB to at least get out the limpers and blinds playing garbage. Obviously, you gotta be pretty careful with this hand. If it's raised to 2-4x BB before me I'll normally call. More than that I'll fold.

and be ready to toss it if there's an ace on the flop, and someone shows any kind of strength.

Ax offsuit seems to be such a "hot" hand for so many people.

i'm pretty cautious with KQ.

 Yeah i have the biggest trouble playing this hand when Ace AND a ten flops. I am always SO tempted it makes me age, but with a huge raise i tend to throw it away.

Don't know why but that quote made me laugh out loud!
