KQ and AJ...behind the numbers

[eejit101]

i dont think ive ever reraised with KQ/AJ unless im shotstacked and want it all in preflop so i can see how far behind i am in advance Or im bluffing somsone whose raised out using a squeeze play.

I fold KQ and AJ in early position unless the blinds are big. Ill limp AJ suited maybe UTG, thats about it.

i agree that it's most likely proper to fold these hands under the gun, especially at a table with solid players...however, mid position, if im feeling comfortable at the table, i want to raise it because i want to know who potentially has a strong hand at the table, if they call im thinking that potentially im beat with an AQ or even an AK, if they raise i can let it go and lose the minimum preflop without getting trapped postflop...

Hang on that makes no sense.

You want to raise.... but if you get called you think your behind??

That defeats the object of raising.

POTENTIALLY(PUH-TEN-SHU-LEE)
adverb...
definition-possibly, but not yet actually
"potentially useful information"
dictionary.com

if im raising, im still firing out, unless the flop is very likely to have hit someone and i didn't get a piece.

[eejit101]

who says potentially like that?

Puh-ten-sha-lee

bloody yanks

And even potentially you shouldnt think that.

kings you forget to mention rescently you have been playing .05-.10 cash games....not gonna find strong play there

I really get upset when I run into people online playing those hands all in. There is so many tilt players that they play almost anything anyway and usually get lucky a mojority of the time.
