Default Re: KK and a short stack on my right.

I still think you should raise.

One of the loose seats was the short stack to my right with $47 left.

All the more reason to raise, they may think you are just isolating him and not give you credit for a big hand. If someone else does come in, you may get the short stack to do a 'desperation cap' trying to get full value for his last few dollars.

Even if you get HU with the shortstack, the expected value for kings is probably about 2BB, so if you can get his $47 + the blinds that is fine.

Otherwise you let the pocket pairs and suited hands try to outflop you cheaply when they may have paid another bet.
