KQ is the SHC but not KJ
To me both of them are the same.
Can anyone help me out?

it looks like i asked a stupid question.
Actually i am looking answer involving EV or possibility to hit the flop
KQ = straight
KJ = gay
well obviously KQ has higher 'ev' than KJ.
and obviously both have equal possibility of hitting flop
If you hit the K, KJ has a greater chance of being out-kicked. Only play first-in from the sb (or maybe cutoff/button) in a cash game or early tourney. Fold to a re-raise a play defensive if you hit the King/offensive if you hit the Jack.
If you flop top pair (Jacks) with KJ, there are twice as many potentially bad overcards that can hit on turn or river than if you flop top pair (Queens) with KQ.
There are many little differences such as this that add up to a significant difference in EV.

Theres a say :
"There are no stupid questions... but yours"
The problem is that KJ is often a dominated hand. So if you push KQ you're only dominated by QQ+ and AK AQ. If you push KJ you're dominated by more hands like AJ KQ and also JJ. So there are 3 more hands that have you dominated and are running bad against.

so Lady>J
But Q+shopping = -$ & -Time = AA win
You realise that a J is a jack right? ♦

If there are no stupid questions, what sort of questions do stupid people ask? ♠_frown:

yes because SB is an awesome spot to play from while BU/CO/HJ are kinda crap right
Yes I always fold KJ when I am on the button. When I am UTG I only play QQ+. You wouldn't want to play a pot without by far the best of it.
Also there is the card removals if you have KQ, there are less chances that villain go AK, AK, KK or QQ.
