It really depends on how loose/tight the table is. has the big blind made it around quite frequently or is there usually a raise preflop? That makes a huge difference on how to act. KJo is not the greatest starting hand but if you feel like you can make it to the BB it might be worth it, however with the size of your chip stack hoping it makes it there might not be the best idea...

not a lot of information here, but judging by the seat positions it looks like you are the button and waldemar9 was UTG when he called. You have 15x BB so you aren't in that dire straights to have to go all in with a hand like KJ. Normally, I would be wary of a first to act smooth call as he could be trying to trap, but seeing that he is the chip leader he may be playing looser. If this is the case, you can call here, or bump it to 600 since you have position, and with the bump you might get both blinds to fold. If he comes back over the top then he probably trapped you and you can fold your hand. If not, play agressive post flop to take it down.

Just call behind... you've got position. If blinds raise.. fold.
My guess is it's a micro buyin, therefore.. better to just call behind on BTN and see if you can outplay after the flop (you might even hit a great flop??)

Not knowing how anyone has been playing and if you're going to play this hand I would raise hoping the blinds fold. I would rather fold than just call. A call here could result in you playing a good size pot multi-handed with a marginal hand although you will have position. With two callers already the blinds could be calling you with better (A-x) where they may have mucked to a raise. A raise may get you heads up with UTG and if he calls with the same size pot. I would still tread lightly as a K or J may fit his hand as well if you hit the flop. If he re-raises I would fold. If he folds of course you win.

I think you should just call because u are in good position, if a raise comes after u is better to fold, but why not trying to see the flop?¿

I think the best option would be to call to see the flop. See if what he does after the flop and then re look at your cards
