ok so lets say im playing in a no limt game and i have king jack suited and lets say the blinds are 50 cents and 1 dollar and someone raises to 2 dollars and u call and the flop is something like jack 4 8... you bet 2 dollars and someone raises you to 5 dollars... to find out if you have the best hand or not what would be the best thing to do...

so i was at the 1000 NL table at Party Poker and i had 2 7 off suit.. and i figured id try to make a play at the pot... i raised to 100 preflop and one other guy behind me calls... the flop comes and its ace king 3.... i bet 125 dollars and the guy raises me all in and i called hoping he was doing the same thing i was doing.. but it turns out he had pocket kings... did i do something wrong :oops:

If I were you, I'd give me all my money and leave. But, that's just me, what do I know???

Avoid calling a raise pre-flop with K-J.

I'd smooth call and see how he feels about it on the turn. Mighta flopped a set, might just be tryin to steal it from you. Gotta know the type of player he is.

My thoughts exactly.Once you've seen the flop, perhaps you are ahead of an unimproved AK or AQ but you're dominated by AJ and behind to a high PP. TPTK is a good way to go broke if you keep staying in after being raised/re-raised. But in this case, once you're on the flop, I'd suggest calling and betting out as long as a Q or A doesn't come on the turn and see what he does. If he re-raises there too, just give it up.
