Live 4-8
I've played maybe 1 hand out of the blind in 45 minutes.I'm in the CO w KQo. The only limper is on my right and is a uberdonk. He's played every hand for an hour and has sucked out 3 times in huge pots to the button who is now on tilt.The button has been raising to isolate him with pretty much any 2 cards higher than a Ten,Ax, and pairs, he also telegraphs what he's going to do and already has his 8 chips ready to fire.Do I still raise here with an almost certain 3 bet. If it was KQs I wouldn't give it this much thought, but I don't really care to play KQo for 3 preflop.What do you think?

If you wanna play for two, can you not call, then call the raise. Or is uber-donk going to 3 bet ?

If button is only raising PP, Ax and QJ+ we are not in the greatest of shape and dont have position, so I could let it go.
However against a donk and a tilter I would like to be involved.

If I can limp and only have to pay one bet back to me, I limp and play poker post flop.

Find another seat or change tables. You are literally in the middle of a war, and are sure to get caught in the crossfire. If you're gonna stay there tighten up and make them pay... but don't get sucked into their lunacy. You will hate yourself in the morning.

He's shown down as low as JT and also 2 times weren't shown down , so it could be looser than that.

Actually, I love your seat. The guy on your right is going to be making all sorts of awful limps postflop plays and YOU have position on him. That's awesome. And having a guy on tilt makes the game even better. Just don't get sucked into the crapfest and keep your standards up.
