He's a shortstack and I think this is exactly his move with a K or a 9.
Anyway I think I have to call this, everything else is weak tight and I'm commited.

Thoughts?

Thank you, guess

I don't think you are comitted. If he does this witha a draw/bluff then this is a call. o/w you have to fold.

I see shortstack villain do this UI, but I do not think this is one of those times.

You're not even close to being committed. Folding is fine, but I prefer to make it a bit more on the rr pf, and checking the flop a majority of the time.

I would have bet half the pot on the flop rather than the 4 you did. That way you would have been even less comitted and you could have let this go easier.

I don't mind the PF raise. Against a shorty like this I don't mind making it a bit more.

Yeah, I'd bet a little bit less on the turn and fold to his all-in without a good read. I wouldn't even consider a 9 here. He either has the K or a flush draw type of hand. Hard to say without reads, but more than likely a K.
