Isolated myself into half of a small pot, I think I still like it?
My raise on third was made in the hopes everyone would call the extra bet to build a monster pot in which I felt I was the best contender for winning the whole pot, instead my opponent decided to make them all face two bets cold with apparently a pair of 9s (shockingly this opponent went broke while I type this, which is quite unfortunate). Not quite sure what to think of my opponent that folded on 7th, I assume he was unable to pull out any kind of low or weak two pair that he could call with in hopes of getting some piece of this pot. My burst of energy on 6th was to build a side pot which I could only assume I was ahead for both high and low in the event I was unable to make a low on the river against the all in opponent that I was giving credit for 6s full or Aces full. Also, should I be completing with a hand like 254 with a 2 flush? I'm not sure what exactly qualifies as a premium hand in this game other than obvious rolled up/3 straight flush, I would assume that this hand is pretty good.

Re: Isolated myself into half of a small pot, I think I still like it?
I like the raise on 4th. It's a little optimstic to presume Seat 1 won't 3bet as a lot of players might do so with 4 low with an ace or a pair of aces, both of which do very well heads up especially with a lot of dead money in the middle. All those people jammed in the middle folding isn't that bad to you either since it improves your chances of wondering into the high half of the pot if you do make a straight or even a low two pair. NH.

Re: Isolated myself into half of a small pot, I think I still like it?
I would make it a full bet on third. The raise on fourth is mandatory. If the bettor three-bets and knocks people out, great. You've got it heads-up with some two-way potential and some dead money. If everyone calls, even better.
I would consider raising on fifth as well. I don't like the check-raise on sixth. If the other guy bets, presumably he has your Kings beaten. You need to catch, and you only have one card to get there. Betting out would have been fine, though. Gotta love an opponent who jams with pocket Nines. |

Raise on 3rd is absolutely 100% automatic.

Even though the bettor is all-in you don't like the checkraise? Seems obvious to me.

OK, I get it now, but the check-raise is good only because the bettor is all-in.
