How does 5/10 rule apply to 3 bets?

[Peleus]

Hi,

Just wondering how the technical aspect of the 5/10 rule applies to re raises if that makes any sense.

I'll use money as its simpler, however it can be applied to any limit as BB's if you wanted.

Let say 50nl, $50 effective stacks.
In both examples we have 55, being treated as set mining hand.

Example 1 is we have a raise from MP and we're on the button, raise is for $1.75, or less then 5% of our stack, standard call to set mine, and also agree's with the rule of 5/10.

Example 2 however is we raise from MP with 55 to $1.75, and we get 3 bet from the button raising to $6. In this case if you look at the amount you have to call in isolation, its $4.5, and a judgment call as to call or not (between 5%-10%).

On the flip side if you look at the total amount, we will be committing $6 in total, which is more then 10%, which should be a fold according to the rule of 5/10.

What if you raise $3, and then get min raised so its only another $3?

Does the 5/10 rule look at the individual amounts, or the overall amount you are committing?

Any help would be appreciated.
