Isnt it limit? With those odds I guess you have to call here to see a flop. BB and UTG will prb call too so that gives you more then correct potodds.

These "either""or" situations get a little unnerving. Again I don't really agree with the answer [although I said to fold] because it's one of those hands you need to play the player not just the hand, in my opinion. Many a times I have called with KJ os and have gotten the flop I was looking for [KJ, KKK, JJJ] and most of the calls have panned out in the end. If I don't get the flop I fold, lose a few chips and wait for a better deal.

These quiz questions can be a swing either way alot of the times and yet, as so many have said, I got the right answer so maybe now I might get into a $500 freeroll.....lmao...Not yet and still looking for that to happen.

This is for me a handthat I would play nearly everytime

Any Bill Fillmaff fan would have to go all-in.... But only if its offsuit KJ, if its suited you might have to fold.!

When you go back and click the right answer it doesn't count your response. Only the first time. I was curious about this too so yesterday afternoon when most people had already had a chance to answer it I tried several times and the overall count didn't go up. I got this one right... for a change...lol.

Also they only pick 5 out of something like 6-700 people each day. That is less than 1% each day. Might be awhile before you and I get picked. Patience is a virtue...lol.

Yes, it does. That's why these questions frustrate me. How the heck am I supposed to put myself in the situation described when they don't tell me itty-bitty details, like, oh I don't know, the size of my stack, the blind amounts, the amount of the raise. Come on. If I have KJ off suite and I got the big stack at the table, and some small stack raises like 1% of my stack of course I'll call for pot odds and see if I hit something on the flop. Maybe that's just me oh well what do I know?

it's limit poker so the raise was the standard raise to $20. With it being this small I see nothing wrong with seeing one card, if you make a hand continue if not you can fold. In limit poker this guy could have raised with anything from and Ace in his hand to a middle pocket pair. The question is assuming he has AK and your dominated. I think it was a legit call. You can't raise with this hand, even it were suited so thats out of the question. Folding was an option but we have know way of knowing how your opponent plays if he has a large chip stack as high chipstacks often refer to more loosened play. I believe fold was the correct answer even though I think it should have been call. Just my opinion.
