Re: K problem on the bubble
[ QUOTE ]
I would not put SB on a K .

It's not that I specifically put him on a K, but as he called the bet on the flop, I though that K is not unreasonable, with his overall very passive play.
Moreover, I think this guy could limp from SB with any K, raising (maybe) only with AK, sometimes KQ. It's not that I tend to suspect monsters under the bed or something, I only think it's a question of how much risk you are willing to take on the bubble, and with one very short stack at the table.

If someone does have a K, the most likely result is chop.

I disagree. If SB limped with K2 - KQ, these are the chances of a chop:
K2-K6 about 1:1, getting closer to 55:45 as his kicker is getting bigger.
K7-K8 - he's getting to about 3:2 over me.
K9-KT - He's around 2:1 against me.
KJ - He's 3:1.
KQ - He's 4:1.
So, generally speaking, if this passive player *does* have a K, (with equal spread of kickers) I'm a dog, if not a big dog. I don't think considering this as a "chop" situation in the worst case, is the right way to look at it.
But regarding the move itself, I agree. I pushed and didn't regret it.
