Top pair vs raiser
 

This is the first hand I've posted so if I didn't do it right please don't crucify me. I've been reading the forums for about a week and wanted to get a hand in.

Villian wasn't overly aggressive from what I could tell.

Limp/calling UTG with KJ in FR is so so so so so so bad. At least you know how to play it post-flop, I'll give you that.

Yeah the limp, call preflop is awful. If your going to play it you should raise, but really under the gun, thats a fold. You need position with a hand like kj offsuit.

Rest of the hand is fine.
