Default Re: KQs in BB unopened pot

See, you are confusing terms. We describe it as worth 1 SB because of the times you don't win. When you do win, it is worth 3SB.

Now everything you say about playing OOP is, in theoretical terms correct. but it's just as correct if you check as if you raise. Now does raising make the hand harder to play? Perhaps, but does this difficulty cost you 1 SB per hand? Not a chance. It's not JUST your equity, you also have a hand that plays well post flop (and, unlike a hand like say 88, unless you flop a set, you'll have a pretty good idea where you are in the hand.)
