    Default KJo

    I was wondering if any of the SSMTT players opens KJo/s in the first few blind levels from LP or is it really AJ and TT+, full ring tables. Cheers.

    Yeah. CO or Button or complete the SB, or raise SB at higher levels depending on the action before me.

    first few levels it's pretty pointless to play anything but SC's, Pairs, Big suited cards, and Suited Aces, IMO. With stacks that are 50bb+ deep I don't want to go busto playing TPGK post-flop. I'll play 22, or 56s up front early on, and will call a raise that's 5% or less of my stack with them. On the other hand I don't play AQo from anywhere for any amount.

    KJo is a hand that will just get you into trouble, especially if you're opening for a raise. It's one of those hands that is going to either win a small pot or lose a big one. Later on, when the blinds are worth attacking I open all day long from LP with it. I save raising the big offsuit Aces and T-K hands for blinds that are worth attacking.

    I generally don't look at my cards in late position in a poker tourney, so I imagine I would open KJo

    At the moment I've been following pretty much what Steve-O is saying, KJo was really the boarderline for me.

    Are you saying you are equally agressive in the early stages of a HSMTT TA?
