He can't bet only 300 into this pot. The problem is that he only has 625 left at this point, and he would be betting 300 into a pot of 1200+. This is not likely to be enough to make anybody fold. Even if they push over the top of him at that point, he's going to be getting such good odds (at least 7:1) that he pretty much has to call and take his chances, because folding is going to leave him with such a short stack anyway. For that reason, Che says that the only bet he can make is all-in, essentially.

The other thing is that your analysis looks to be a little results-oriented. You appear to be relatively new here, so here is one of the mantras: the results don't matter. You should always try and analyze the play on the basis of what you knew going into the hand, not what you knew afterwards, because that's representative of how the game is played.
