Well, personally, I always (without fail) have some read on the SB by this point and some idea of my table image, and I play KJo here accordingly. There isn't a black and white answer.

I think yours and 45suited posts are great...I hadn't realized consiously the points you discussed - but I realized that I do go through the same process in this spot...

Incidentally Tigerite (or 45suited)... how bad is cold-calling here and then 'playing some poker' post-flop?

a) You're ITM already
b) You're getting 4:1 on your money
c) Generally - you have to figure you have 2 live ones
d) You have position and may be able to buy it post-flop (since - as we already established - we now have a read on the SB)

Not bad at all, I'd certainly want to call rather than fold the vast majority of the time I would even consider folding.

I think I would probably call here barring the villain is a total donk and has been minraising a ton. This is because:
a) I don't think he's folding to the all in raise.
b) I don't think we're ahead of him right now.
c) We're kinda short and KJ is a pretty good hand 3 way.
d) If I flop a pair it will probably be top pair and he'll probably bet into me, allowing me to basically double up everytime I flop a pair. I would probably use position to my advantage here.

Repushing isnt a great play I think, I would fold before I pushed against a normal player. I think I call here 75%, fold 25%.
