KTo ahead of a stealer's range?

    Default KTo ahead of a stealer's range?

    I hate this hand, but will defend it in the blinds. What about if I open limped from LP and button raises?

    Oh, and not a habitual stealer, but the usual type who will raise from the button most of the time.

    I just mean in general; i don't have an HH

    I'm new with pokerstove, but...

    5,034,173,760 games 10.297 secs 488,897,131 games/sec

    Board:
    Dead:

    equity (%) win (%) tie (%)
    Hand 1: 41.4449 % 38.97% 02.48% { KTo }
    Hand 2: 58.5551 % 56.08% 02.48% { 22+, A2s+, KTs+, QTs+, JTs, A9o+, KTo+, QTo+, JTo }

    So not that well.

    Don't open limp from LP. Yuck.

    If I thought the player was weak, donk, or I have him outchipped I will call a standard raise and try to outplay postflop. Against a solid, tight, decent player I'll fold to any standard raise.

    Since you are looking at a real general case. Equal stacks, no read, then typically here I will call 1x, 2x, 3x (maybe) raises and fold to anything higher.

    KTo is an annoying hand and I typically dont limp with it in LP so my experience for this exact situation may be lacking

    yeah open-limping is gross here. If you raise, you almost surely get heads up, with position on one of the blinds. I raise/fold KT here everytime. Limping just causes this, or gives the blinds a free flop.
