Party Poker 0.50/1 Hold'em (9 handed) FTR converter on zerodivide.cx

Preflop: Hero is MP2 with K:heart:, J:spade:.
2 foldsMP1 raises

In most cases is this a either 3 bet or dump it? Of coarse depending if the player who raises is solid or loose? Anyone just call here? Not a hugh fan of KJos to call a raise with . I will raise it in position if only 1 or 2 limpers.

Is any of my thinking ok here? opinions please.......

I'm thinking you're correct in your "3-bet or toss" line of thinking. More precisely, unless you have a read on the guy as being LAG preflop, I'm probably just tossing it more often than not.

KJs may be a different story.

Dump it.

Assuming he is not overly LAG his hand range is somethink like:
AK AQ AJ AT KQ AA KK QQ JJ TT 99.

KJ doesnt play well against those hands. In the muck! tongue.gif

KJ too easily dominated, easy fold.

KJ is a 3-bet or fold hand, and short of having excellent reads, you dump this pretty much every time.
pre-flop, cold-calling is almost never the right decision, except very occasionally in late position with a whole lot of callers.
