$35+8 tourney (3 of that goes to tokes). I had also taken a $20 add-on. We had just condensed to the final table. Top eight spots are paid. Eighth place is 51 and the significant money jumps are fifth place, third place, and first place.
Blinds were 500/1000. I was 5th of 10 in chip position with 6500, barely edging out the other short stacks.
I got dealt KJo on the button and it folded around to me. SB has plenty of chips--he got lucky on another table, calling 84o for a raise and eventually being placed all-in against two players preflop and caught trip 4s. BB has 1200 in addition to her BB.
We had played four hands (I think) up to this point and the SB had folded every hand, so I figured he'd tightened up a bit for one reason or another.
What is my correct play at this point? Do I limp in, raise a small amount, or go all-in?
The lady in the big blind seemed to have been playing fairly tight and may fold her blind for a raise.
