No reads, canīt say I remember button minraising before. Can I call this or do I just fold it and play the next hand?

Some days I fold KQ here and some days I call just to see a flop. A button min-raise is either a nice hand or just garbage.

Take a quick peek around the table. You don't have the luxury to spew here. Easy fold.

With a decent sized stack (around 3000+) I'll call this. Otherwise into the muck it goes.

Read dependent. No read = fold. If he's been raising ur blinds a lot, it's push for me.

No. If he's raising my blinds all the time, KQ stacks up well against his range. Add to that the FE and I don't have a problem pushing with 350 in the middle.

Fold. I would maybe call this out of the BB but probably not. I really have nothing good to say about QK offsuit in this position.

It would seem like a great re-steal oppurtunity but without a read that this guy has been raising a lot and you feel you have high FE then toss it in the muck. KQo OOP yuck!
