Default KQ suited in EP, need advice

Mostly I raise or limp with KQs in ep depending on my overall feel of the table...

But nothing i do really "feels" comfortable... its more or less just my guess of what to do

So Im asking for advice

1/2 and 2/4 limit, full ring (10) what do you do with KQs in EP

Raise?
Limp?
FOld?

Mix of Raise and Limp?

And what factors into these decisions...

Any help would be appreciated

Raise.

Sure KQs can play well multi-way, but in EP you have no guarantee of a multi-way pot. By raising you may fold out Ax hands and also take control of the hand. Of course it pays to have reads on your opponents preflop 3-bet standards and how aggressively your opponents are playing at you postflop, etc.

Raising KQs in EP is +EV.

I would raise KQs and KQo everywhere.

If you don't feel comfortable that you can play KQo well postflop, just fold it. But I think KQs should always be raised in these games.

There was some discussion of playing KQ from EP not too long ago. Conclusion? Raise, call, or fold. [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

Here's the old thread.

Personally, I raise it UTG always.
