    Default KTo UTG + 1

    So there I am. Microstakes 9 man game.

    I get KTo while I'm UTG +1. It's the 2nd hand of the game, and I have no reads.

    Am I being too tight?

    Well, it depends on what you did! If you folded, then no you're not being too tight. KTo is a junk hand when you're OOP on a full table and has really bad reverse implied odds (because if you raise here, hands like AT and KQ won't re-raise and you might lose a lot of chips on a T or Q high flop).

    Its very easy to get dominated with a had like KT. With so many players behind you its best to just fold here. You especially don't wanna play a pot OOP with a weak hand. Save your chips for later.
