The flop bet is for fold equity, and works. Should I slow down on the turn or hold strength?

I would slow down if you got raised, but everyone else played it soo passively. You just don't know where your at, hard to say

Really? In what position do you begin calling KJo 10-handed?

agreed, KJo is junk in your position, if you were cutoff or the button, maybe play it, IMO

XXEddie, nice job adding your thoughts in here(the same as I'm doing, a worthless post).

The next time I'm tempted to play KJo in middle position, I need to slap myself. It's too painful to play for me. Then again, I know I overbet when the flop only helps me somewhat (i.e. J high flop)

I generally fold KJ off. Period.MAYBE I'll play it if it's folded around to me on the button, but otherwise, nah.
