    It's either an all in if you know your oponent and they will fold or a stop and go.

    Downswinging holla!
    I think that it's a good play, you have some fold equity and you're probably in a coinflip if he calls.

    cuz your stack is nice enough, just steal when you can

    If he's a loose caller then I don't like it, but atleast you are probably ahead on a flip if he calls.

    If he isn't then this is great as he won't be trying to take your blinds as much.
    pulling a courtiebee pŏŏl-ĭng ā kôrt-ē-bē (verb phrase):
    1. overvaluing mid pocket pairs
    2. knowing you should fold, but donkishly calling or raising anyway

    That could definately be a steal, so i think it's a good move.

    Four-handed you'll see a lot of min-raises with A5 and hands like that. Still it doesn't take much for you to be either dominated or a coin flip. I would just call it and, if neither an Ace or King hits on the flop, put all my money in the pot regardless of what he does.
