I think so.

The 5 is a pretty crappy card for you, but a nine,ten,jack,queen,king or ace wouldn't really be too great either.

Why is the converter screwed up for you? It works fine for me.

Depends on how confident you are that your opponent doesn't have an overpair.

The problem with raising ANY amount here, is that it's often hard to get rid of a big ace, at least in the 55s.

the case 5 fell on the turn...you can't beat a thing.

To answer your question, I'd make it about 400.
