CO: average reg...posts a half kill and acts last unless it is raised in front of him
Blinds are tight.
HJ open limps, I am next to act on the button with K7o...What should I do?
I originally posted this scenario a couple years ago but with KTo. A very reputable forum member suggested that not raising a hand like K7o would be a mistake. However, I just reread the responses and I just figured out that he thought the HJ had folded. I thought raising K7o was crazy too but I wanted to see what you smart people thought.
While I have you, would you raise K9o in the original situation?

Can't wait to see how this turns out since this is probably one of several leaks for me. Offsuit king....maybe raising a J, certainly raising a Q. a T is my current tipping point.
Really depends on hj range since it’s the only variable.
Fact is the average players per flop is gonna be 3+, and since the blinds are small, you need to realize a larger portion of the pot. So I don’t think it makes sense to raise some hands like K9o, which I would raise on the button vs two limps. I would raise KT in the described kill pot.

I would raise KTo and fold K9o.
If the kill acts in turn and checks then I would consider raising K9 with that extra bit of info about his hand.
BB is loose but doesn't always defend. He is fairly uncombative post but will make a raise to see where your at...He has folded to a 3 bet a couple times in spots like this. He is fairly sticky.
Folded to me on the button.....Should I be cutting out of the lower suited connector hands given my description of BB? What is the worst suited connector you would open with? 45s? How about not suited? 89o?

I play these hands,
22+, A2s+, K2s+, Q2s+, J2s+, T2s+, 92s+, 82s+, 72s+, 62s+, 52s+, 42s+, 32s, A2o+, K5o+, Q8o+, J8o+, T8o+, 98o, 87o, 76o, 65o, 54o
I used to play any two suited 3 way but I'm starting to think eliminating the worst suited hands makes sense. I tend to ditch the T2s, 92s, T3s, 93s etc types. I'm saying this in regard to the tighter MP2 open range. If it was the button open and the SB call I would call these because now I think the ranges are wider and more attackable.
I also question defending K5o here. I just don't like the big little offsuit combos.
The rest of the hands sound about right. I'm certainly open for debate regarding the above and I'm not sure that I am correct.

I’m not interested in a debate. Do what you think is correct. Many different approaches win at poker.

I'm not debating you! I mentioned that my assumptions may not be correct. I respect your input but that doesn't mean I should accept everything you say as the gospel. Most of the time I totally agree with what you say and greatly appreciate your response. There are some hands in your latest response that don't feel right to me. It doesn't do me any good not to bring it up for discussion. Maybe others will say yep that sounds right or not. I'm just trying to hone in on what is closest to correct.

Im sorry if my language seems defensive or aggressive. I was just responding to your statement that you’re open for debate. I think it’s important to be open to debate things. That’s how people become really good at things, by being willing to look at all perspectives. I respect that. What I’m meaning to say is that I’m removing myself from the debate. And to encourage you to play the way you think is best.
