Whether at the weekly game with friends or online, I feel like I am always playing JK offsuit wrong. I never seem to find a middle ground between fold or all-in. Position never seems to matter, nor open or slow played. Is there a better way? Should I just leave it alone?

Just work on your open ranges and cold call ranges.It's a hand best not played from a'lot of positions especially facing a raise.

I consider it on the stronger end of medium strength hands with QK, A9/A10 following suit. It's usually good enough for an open UTG in 6-max, definitely not in 9-max. Just treat it like you would any other Jx or Kx, you can deinitely hit a flop and you have a good kicker if you hit a pair.

KJ is not a good hand. Medium strength at best. I don't open in early position or call early position raises with it. It works well in late position when Hero is in position
