What do you guys normally do w/ these hands UTG,UTG+1,MP1 at a full table (for this arguments sake 8-10 ppl)
I fold these probably 60% raise 20% limp 20%. Too weak? When blinds increase are you more or less likely to play these, and if so, how do you play them? |

AJ is WORLDS away from K10.
I fold your whole range except AJ, and KQ. These I'll raise occasionally given the right condions. K10? Gimme 67s anyday over K10... |

There's a vulnerability inherent in playing AJo and KQo OOP which can be exploited by good opponents.
AJs and KQs are justifiable for raises from most positions, but you face a decision when you meet resistance. |

All jokes aside folding these 60% of time is way too high

Re: AJ,A10,KJ,KQ,K10 etc EP
Assuming it's early in a tournament and blinds aren't really a concern yet, I mostly fold these UTG. Mostly raise MP1. UTG+1 depends on things like on how the table is playing, stack sizes, tightness of the blinds, etc.
Folding these types of hands 60% of the time UTG is not "way too high" ... but as runout_mick said, there is a huge difference between the value at the top end of this spectrum and the bottom of it. |

If I am playing TAG I fold these, mostly everytime.
If I am playing LAG (with a bigish stack) I play some of these, AJ, KQ, possibly AT, AT/KQ definatly has to be suited. Also depends on the level... level 1+2 I will limp all of these if suited. Level 3+ its what I desribed above. |

Re: AJ,A10,KJ,KQ,K10 etc EP
I almost always fold these in early position if unsuited. Obviously, I usually play AJo is MP1. Also, if it is the bubble or I have a big stack that people are respecting at higher buyin or late in the tournament, I will steal raise with these sometimes.
If the cards or suited, I am more likely to limp or raise, but I would still fold most of these UTG. If my N is really low, obviously I push these, but it has to be really low to get the right odds. I really think playing broadway cards in early position is generally a leak. |
