The others have about the same stack size as you so i can't see the logic in calling that amount to see the flop on a tight table with that hand. Having very little experience of short handed games i'm not sure if that would be standard play or not but from what i know of the 25/50 full ring games you just have to stay out of making tough decisions by staying tight and if you call here and flop comes rainbow K high you could be taken right down to value town by KQ or whatever. Simply for me K3s easy fold to re-raise unless you're insisting on the implied odds.
This is 7 minutes in to the video

I'm getting 2-1 and I have position - if I think if it's against someone who will defend their blind, is capable of doing it with any two, then I can see a flop? I agree I cant see a flop as liberally as I suggest, at the spur of the moment , in the video.

I'm raising from the button. I'm weak. The guy on the button knows I can be weak ..... he can make that move with quite a wide range Having said that, I think you're right and I should fold the huge majority of the time....
