Default 5/10, Gutshot in blind battle

He has TAGlike stats, sorta 22/16 and seems pretty aggro/bluffy. No real read.

Full Tilt Poker
No Limit Holdem Ring game
Blinds: $5/$10
5 players
Converter

Stack sizes:
UTG: $894.50
CO: $1080.75
Button: $1556
SB: $990
Hero: $1594

Pre-flop: (5 players) Hero is BB with K[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] 5[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]
3 folds, SB calls, Hero checks.

Flop: 3[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] 4[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] A[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] ($20, 2 players)
<font color="#cc0000">SB bets $20</font>, <font color="#cc0000">Hero raises to $70</font>, <font color="#cc0000">SB raises to $190</font>, <font color="#cc0000">Hero raises all-in $1584</font>

Thoughts?

why make it so large? I think 500 is enough if you feel he is FOS.

That would leave him room to convince himself that his 8[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] 6[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] or whatever has fe if he pushes?

The raise to $70 is ok if you do it rarely and he's not a fish. But after his reraise, how often are you against the nuts vs a (semi)bluff? I don't like the pot odds. I don't think you get a ton of FE either, because he might include a draw in your range.

why do you think A2,A3,22,33 are not in his range? why do you think he's FOS often enough to make this +ev? witout a great read my advice would be not to go broke with K5o unimproved in unraised pots.

Exciting play, has to work too often to make it worthwhile (+ev).

It's not a blind battle if no one raises preflop. And to even raise his first bet in such a tiny pot is just silly.
