Thing with raising smaller was, the table dynamics was, that the 2 big stacks were calling any small raises (with the ante on top getting very good odds to do that), so to have a chance to get it through it was either pot or nothing.
It’s fine if they call because our hand is fairly easy to play post flop.
If we hit top pair, a 5, or a flush draw, we go with it.
I’m also in the raise 2.2x camp. If we get jammed on by a shorty we can fold since it’s AA or KK like always.
As played, you just have to go with it. The other player can have good kings instead of aces.
