duely corrected

yes is is but it's more out of curiousity. I'd put K5 down there but I'm wondering if I'm too tight. I tried to alter the ammounts so it didnt look like a critisism of the hand that took me out cos thats not how it is intended.

Surely it would depend on the image of the person in question?

I'd be tempted to call and fire out 5k if i thought they'd missed the flop.

short stack has only just arrived at the table but is a well known rock (and obviously with hindsight wishes he's moved the lot in pre flop)

that would have been a better move

i would have moved in there as shorty with as little as 8 high

I'd fold, why would a short stack bet almost half his chips if he didn't have a monster AA or KK? QQ, AK or lower and he'll move in preflop.

What happened? Did he call, hit two pair and put you in?

Very much depends on the style of the raiser.

If he's been doing it all night, then maybe you should make a stand and play back at him.

If it's his first raise since the comp started, then fold.

In general, I'd just fold. Even if you have managed to catch him at it, he can still easily outdraw a hand like K5.
