5 handed in $10r with K9o in the SB
5 left in a $10 rebuy. I came to the FT as the 2nd largest stack but a couple of ill-timed moves has left be as the shortie with 5 left.
Stack sizes (after the blinds have posted the 2.5K/5K blinds... no antes): SB (me) - ~37K BB - ~ 100K UTG - ~135K UTG+1 - ~55K Button - ~85K UTG folds, UTG+1 (a very solid player who recently took down $26K in this sites $100K Gtd tourney) limps, Button limps, SB ??? UTG+1 is pretty tight, and I've not seen him limp before. Whenever he's raised pre-flop he's had the goods, but I'm not sure what a limp means about his hand strength? Button is pretty loose & I'm not overly concerned about his holdings. Here are my options with my K9o: 1) Complete the BB & see a flop. I think it's unlikely the BB will raise this here as I've not seen him do it previously. 2) Push all in & hope to pick up the pot right there (which would give me a stack size of nearly 60K... a nice boost) or to be called by a QJ or smaller PP type hand. 3) Fold for the extra 2.5K. I think 3) is the worst of the options. My problem with 1) is that if I hit a King, I could be in a world of hurt by being out-kicked. Unless I hit a King or 9 I probably need to throw this away after the flop, right? With 4 in I couldn't push blind & hope no one has hit. If I push, I'm getting pretty good odds even if I get called. With 2 live cards, I'd be getting the correct odds wouldn't I? So what's everyone's play here? Push/Call/Fold?

Re: 5 handed in $10r with K9o in the SB
I pushed & was called by the guy I had respect for with K10. Roughly the worst hand I could've seen!
I was shocked that he called with that hand. When he called I seriously thought JJ+, AQ+ was going to be flipped up. Either he isn't as solid as I thought he was, or my image was poop for some reason (having said that, I hadn't pushed pre at the FT before then...)
