i think we're diverging from the issue at hand here.. our rationale to raise here in BB was "being ahead of everyone's limping ranges"... if a lot of those limping ranges contain small to medium pairs (and even Ax) which is highly probable, KJ is really not ahead of those ranges..
speaking of postflop, if you're really intending to play a "4 way pot" after raising KJo oop, i think it's better we don't discuss raising in the first place anyway because it's clearly bad, because your edge reduces significantly against 3 other random hands even if KJ is ahead pre..
but let's say it goes heads up with the whale, then i can understand your rationale of making it difficult for his 77- to go to showdown, given you're willing to barrel away even when you whiff...
