if its good enough to call its good enough to raise...
you know alot of people dont get playing short handed poker...
the value of a hand goes way up and more importantly stealing blinds means alot more when the tournament gets down to the last few people and the blinds are getting high... not raising can not only let a person sneak in for free it can cost you the game.
this guy would jsut call the blinds all the time and then go all in on the flop or the turn reguardless of what was out ther e... he got his all ins called several times when he as behind... basically if he saw a scare card or if the turn brought a hand which would beat him he would go all in... sort of dumb... but whatever .. .he would get lucky and suckout normally.
this guy let me see the flop for free i was in the BB... is he raises even the minimum i am folding.. . so gentlemen when it is short handed if you are going to call ...RAISE instead.
