Default BLIND QUESTION -- strongest hand you will fold

Typical 6 handed 10/20 limit Party

TAG UTG raises, everyone folds to you the BB.

What is the strongest hand you are willing to lay down?

So you guys fold stuff like K9o or 87o ? [img]/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img]
EDIT :
I am curious how you approach solving that kind of problems.
For example K10o has 37% equity vs typical TAG utg range. I guess I have to subtract something for position disadvantage and something for hands which play bad postflop. I am especially curious about that "play bad postflop" part. Are there any threads about the topic ?

A lot of time 3betting preflop will make a hand a lot easier to play postflop.

Easier, yes. More +EV? Questionable.

Against a typical 25/17 I would play 22, AJo/ATs, KQs/KQo, QJs/QJo, and JTs.

I don't think playing low suited connectors is a good idea.
