KQo in the SB
1-3 Sunday late morning...6-handed at the moment...I've only been at the table for an orbit or two.
V1 (BTN)...late MAAG...sitting with $75...has played a few hands--nothing memorable.
V2 (UTG)...30something Latino...sitting with $150, likes to see cheap flops but haven't seen him do much.
Hero (SB)...60ish WG
UTG limps...folded to BTN who raises to $21...Hero looks down at KQo...
Raise/Shove or fold?

Raise to 39
The limper likes to see cheap flops and seemed fit-or-foldish, so I'm assuming he's not calling a huge raise without a real hand.
Seems as if raising is going to be a flip or behind situation for $75, but your options are raise or fold, so pick one.
Trivial fold for me. Guy has done nothing memorable and now is getting in a third of his stack. We also have no FE against flipping hands / weak Ax at this depth. Also can't call for this percentage of stacks (even hoping other guy comes along). Also no dead money and rake make this a losing situation when "flipping" against 77/etc.
ETA: I quicky mathed the EV in my 9+1+1+1 raked game, and our flip situation just lost us $8... which is horrible if that is mostly our best case scenario (unless we think he's doing this with KJ/etc. a heckuva lotta the time).

We’re never ahead, sometimes dominated, sometimes can have 40 or even 44%. Why get involved?
