Default Preflop question

30/60 6-handed. UTG folds, 60/0/0,1 (the reason hero plays in this game) limps, 1 fold.

Hero has K7o on the button and has been isolating the 60/0 a lot.

SB ist very strong, defending loose, BB plays higher than usual, seems to be defending very tight (Folded to steal 75% in a small sample).

Raise/Fold/Limp?

K7s/K9o are my minimums in this spot. I wish I could add more to this thread but this is one of those spots where I dont know the precise cutoffs, so I make up my own and imagine theyre right.

too weak to iso. My rule of thumb: if I have an offsuit king and I'm not sure if its +ev to play, I fold. Offsuit kings lead to trouble.

Isn't this too tight? Again, Villain is 60/0/0,1, very easy to play against. I folded but felt like chicken. Against tight blinds, equals or worse players only, I would raise.

Rag offsuit kings suck. Fold and save your cash, there are easier ways to fleece this fool.

I usually raise here. Even tough sb don't defend more than 30% and I'm happy to take my hand up against one or both of the other two. Close though. k5o I'd def muck.

This is a pretty meh spot. I raise K9o. I often raise K8o. I'd probably raise this too because raising is fun, but it's close obv. I fold K6o.

I raise this very often, but how the table is playing and how well the blinds know I will iso raise I can see some very weak hands in my range.
