Re: Putting opponent all-in on the river ...
That's the kind of information I was looking for.
If someone types in the exact amount I have left it does irritate me a little, but more importantly it makes me think 'why the heck did he do that when he could've just bet $5'. It makes me step back through the hand and see if everything makes sense. If it does then it reassures me to fold. On the other hand if things don't make sense I would guess it makes me more likely to call because it seems like he's trying to put the pressure on me. He must be trying to make me fold...he could be weak.
On the other hand a 1/2 pot river bet of $5 could seem almost like standard ABC play. Making me think 'maybe he's not paying attention, I could still be good here with my KQ'. I guess a lot depends on the opponent's mind set.
