Hmmm. I'm not raising this preflop from MP3, especially against UTG limp which can sometimes be a trap.

As played, why not take a free card by checking behind on the flop? The bet's not so bad but if he called pfr, he's not that likely to be folding here.

As played, fold on river looks good. Even if villain doesn't have a pair, he'll have Ace high often enough to make the call too expensive.

these suited face cards look great but are beaten too often, if you want to play them i suggest getting in cheap and play for flush.
If you are using any sort of analysis software it might be worth checking how profitable or otherwise AQs, KQs etc have been for you.
Once you see you might well decide to just fold them pre flop.

Fold preflop or raise a bit bigger, I prefer folding KQ from this position. As played I would also bet the flop and check or fold the turn and river.

I would never fold KQs preflop in that spot. I like completing much more than raising. Postflop I like Tim's line.

Hi all,

This exactly. I don't mind limping KQs behind here either. Generally preflop at the lower limits is very passive, which lets us get away with these more marginal limps (for example 6.5$-> I definitely wouldn't limp behind from this position with this type of hand).
