Default KJs in SB play along

This is a situation I find often, getting a strong/semistrong hand in the blinds with a lot of limpers.

3 folds, MP limps, 1 fold, MP2 limps, CO limps, Button limps, Hero sees KdJd in SB and....?

FWIW, I think I would usually raise this at my 2/4 table. It sucks being OOP but there will most likely be 6 to the flop so I'm assuming I have an equity advantage with this hand.

You play out of River Rock?

Probably about 90% boulevard, 8% cascades, 2% riverrock (only been to the rock three times since its a far drive, all three were for the 100$ tournaments)

Yeah, you can raise for value here so long as you can recognize when the flop misses you & get out when conditions warrant.

Just completing isn't bad, but raising is better.

This is a standard SSHE raise. Hero has 30% equity vs 4 random hands, and still has an equity edge of 4% vs a huge range of any Bway, any 2 suited, and any pair.

Raise, and be aware of flop texture before auto betting. Pre-flop play isnt where you will be making your money, its all post flop where you should be concerned.

Cascades is only a couple of blocks from my place so I've only played there. Boulevard is on my way home from work, some day I'll get around to giving that a try.

raise pf. bet any flop that gives you middle pair or better, a flush draw, an OESD, or a gutterball to the nuts.

Alright, the consensus is to raise, and I agree, for some reason I didnt do it though.

3 folds, MP limps, 1 fold, MP2 limps, CO limps, Button limps, Hero sees KdJd in SB and limps in, BB checks.

Flop Jh7c3s

i have no idea why you would consider doing anything other than bet here on a flop that may have helped nobody, thus negating any chance you have for a CR.
