Without any solid read on this player you can't really call, although the action is very fishy.

I fold this preflop especially in the first few orbits for this very reason...

call me nitty, but this is the exact reason why I don't play KJo to an UTG raise. I understand that there are a lot of callers before you, so you may call because you're getting the odds to do so, but usually KJ is a hand that has great reverse implied odds. Even if you flop a K, with a PFR+lots of callers there's a chance that you may be outkicked, etc.

Turn without reads I think is a fold. Find a better spot vs. this shorty.

first: don't take advice from anyone telling you what to do at the table

second: fold this pre flop and fold it to the turn raise.

I fold this one preflop. As for the turn the lead is a bit meh given that you are so easily dominated, I think I like just checking this one to the river. Thats basically the reason that you should be folding pre, you really need a straight to make any money out of this hand in a raised pot, so just dump it.

Easy turn fold. Oh and never listen to what anyone says on the table.
