    After the flop, probably not. But, why raise KJ here? It's early, why not just wait? What are you hoping for really? If you win now, you get 45 chips (not changing the game), if you get reraised, you leave.

    How do you play if this is KQ9 and you have the guy raising you, are you really going to hit/fold?

    These hands are very hard to play, and you'll be shocked how many times you have no idea if your ahead or behind until you lose a lot of money. Much better to fold here (now, later in the game, and your short, different story).

    yes u can.

    thats an extremely scary board.

    for me, unless i basically have the nuts on a broadway flop like this, i basically just check the hand down. unless u got a10 or a set here, u need to be really careful.

    the other spot this comes up is with AA and flop K,J,Q.

    in these spots- i would recommend check flop, bet turn, check river.

    What is he raising with that you beat? AK is probably 3-betting pre. Doubt he's raising mid/bottom pair in this spot. At best, he has a strong draw or two pair.

    Probably not raising KJo in MP in a SNG either.
