Is my line here okay? Villain is unknown. I think calling with suited KQ is okay offsuit I would 4b bluff. River we have quite the top of our range I expect to see sometimes A :diamond: bluffs but not much more bluffs actually.

Hey Tukioppilas62,

I would generally just bluff preflop here. KQs is fine to call in position but can often be tough to make profitable in this situation. If we can nullify opponents positional advantage it'll be ok.

Flop x/c is standard.

Turn x/f is generally standard here on this card.

Calling down 3 streets is too thin and a pretty bad play. It's true it might be the top of our range, but rather than making us call it might just mean we should x/c some more stronger hands on the turn rather than x/r all hands that are stronger than KQ.
