Default KQ preflop situation fold/call/ raise?

1raiser 2caller and I am oop. Do you raise it here to play Hu vs 1villain or perform a tight fold?




PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em, $0.10 BB (6 handed) pokerhand.org hand converter

Hero ($10.25)
BB ($11.20)
UTG ($10.75)
MP ($10.15)
CO ($7.40)
Button ($10.05)

Preflop: Hero is SB with K[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], Q[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img].
<font color="#CC3333">UTG raises to $0.4</font>, <font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, CO calls $0.40, Button calls $0.40, <font color="#666666">2 folds</font>.

Im not reraising KQ out of the blinds against an UTG raiser. Now if he's raising from CO or OTB Im usually reraising. I would opt for folding here. I wouldn't want to play this hand OOP against 3 other players.

No way I'm re-raising here, especially if it's an UTG who's opening with a raise. I probably wouldn't call if UTG was the only raiser, as the raising range is generally very small from that position, and likely has us dominated.

Just fold. Your up against an UTG raise with a dominated hand.

A fold isn't tight vs an UTG raise.

Still new at this, but this seems like a pretty easy fold. If you do raise, it shouldn't be to play hu, it should be to take the pot down right there.

fold, i sometimes make the call with sooted KQ, but it really has to be a fold a large % of the time since its -ev against 3 players. if CO/BTN raised, and I was BB i'd 3bet fwiw

fold, your hand is dominated I only 3bet this if there was a raise from CO and a call from BU. But still won't do this at 10 NL because you have little Fold Equity
