Really need reads for these spots...if the guy folded 5 hands so far that's a read...anything will help. Against a total unknown I'd fold.

JARID hints at it, but the key here is the guy has 6BB left and raised half his stack. That's almost never a weak hand.

I fold, by not going all in it looks like he has a strong holding and wants action.
