Yeh, I figured I had a pot odds call, but I didn't think about how I only have 5xBB if I lose. I figured villain could have an underpair or maybe AT or something. I also wasn't sure if he thought he might have FE.

Villain showed AKs same suits, so I was 34%, slightly behind pot odds. Hit a Q on the flop, but a K on the river. Pushed A6o the next hand and 88 pushed over top and busted me.

Not exactly true I don't have FE with 5xBB, but it puts me in the uncomfortable position of doing a lot of pushing. If I won the A6o hand, I would have been back to 13xBB. I probably have a lot of cEV+ plays real short stacked.

With 14xBB, I have a stack for pushbotting or restealing. With 32xBB if I had called and won, I am the 2nd biggest stack at the table, and probably can exploit that.

As for the raise size, I was sometimes raising 2.5xBB. There was a huge stack in CO flat calling a lot. I wanted to represent I had something like AK/TT and wasn't folding to a reraise, but I was planning to raise/fold. Also, if I am called, I have a big pot and can get allin with any pair or draw. If I had made it 7.5xBB, I would have folded to villain's push here.
