PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em, $0.10 BB (6 handed) Hand History Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com (Format: 2+2 Forums)

SB ($4)
Hero ($11.55)
UTG ($8.85)
MP ($10.60)
CO ($11.65)
Button ($11.40)

Preflop: Hero is BB with K[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], Q[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img].
UTG calls $0.10, <font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, <font color="#CC3333">CO raises to $0.4</font>, <font color="#666666">2 folds</font>, Hero..?

Pre-flop raise? Attempt to steal? (Yes I know this isn't actually a steal but it gives an idea of positional awareness and if he'll be raising significantly more often in LP.)


Anyway fold would be standard. Against the right villian a 3bet would be good. I personally would never call here.

then don't

I fold a large percentage of the time here, unless Villain is very fishy.

I fold all day.
I fold KQs probably too vs competent villain.

[maciczka]

fold it and wait till YOu have at at LP ; )

Calling and 3betting are pretty marginal, but against the right villains can be OK. Much easier to fold than playing an easily dominated hand against decent players.

Fold should be the standard here. As others have noted, raising is an option in unusual circumstances.
