Both villains have been slightly laggy, but nothing completely out of the ordinary (that I've seen). I know shorthanded poker is more laggro than normal, but is folding here usually the right plan?

Party Poker 1/2 Hold'em (6 max, 6 handed) converter (http://www.selachian.com/tools/bisonconverter/hhconverter.cgi)

Preflop: Hero is MP with A/images/graemlins/heart.gif, A/images/graemlins/spade.gif. Hero posts a blind of $1.
CO calls, Button calls, SB folds, BB folds, UTG folds, <font color="#CC3333">Hero (poster) raises</font>, CO calls, Button calls.

Flop: (6.50 SB) 4/images/graemlins/heart.gif, 5/images/graemlins/diamond.gif, K/images/graemlins/diamond.gif <font color="#0000FF">(3 players)</font>
<font color="#CC3333">Hero bets</font>, CO calls, Button calls.

Turn: (4.75 BB) 5/images/graemlins/spade.gif <font color="#0000FF">(3 players)</font>
<font color="#CC3333">Hero bets</font>, <font color="#CC3333">CO raises</font>, <font color="#CC3333">Button 3-bets</font>, Hero folds...

The converter messed up the action a bit, but I was in the blinds, not MP.

You've only got approximately 5-to-1 pot odds here.
Looks like a pretty good fold to me.

What could they have that could beat you.
They cold called your preflop raise
nobody has a 5 unless there a pocket pair.
Pocket K's should have raised pre flop so the only hand that could beat you was PP 4's or 5's.
My guess is AK or KQ for both.
I cap

Interesting. I'm new to shorthanded games, I would have folded this in a normal LAG filled game. I regularly see people calling with A5o pre-flop to raises out of position, why couldn't it have been someone playing 56s? Is caping really the correct play?

I see people playing crap like 53s UTG all the time.
