First question i asked myself before raising the flop was : What can he hold ? Sets, 2 pairs, TPGK/TPTK, and Kx of Diamonds. reason : he was rather short stack and they like to shove on those kinds of boards.
Second Question : Do i have Equity to call/raise ? I did a quick assessment that i had around 38% equity(Backdoor straight and backdoor nut flush draws combined with TPTK and Ace blocker) . and i at the time i roughly judged that even if he bet his whole stack it would be less than 40% Pot odds (i dont use calc. or others while playing), so i felt like i had to equity to raise, and so i did.
Do you agree?

This was a wierd hand, all i can say is that i had nut flush draw + TP. but honestly i dont think that worse hands would call that raise or even reraise often enough to be profitable.
but his preflop action at the time just screamed to me, that he was bluffing.
Would you expect a shortstacker to flat KK+ or AK preflop? cause i see it rarely. so that leaves out 55, but its still a stupid situation i brought myself in, by raising.

This third hand was in the periode where i was on tilt, so i decided to shove it on river, because only worse or equal hands could call, but honestly i didn't expect a call due to flop and turn action.
I feel like the 2 last hands was played poorly and first hand was though but overall i still think that its a profitable raise and reraise against this type of villian.
