I'd gotten myself into trouble with QQ early and was short-stacked, so I ended up running in this situation:
PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em Tourney, Big Blind is t200, antes t25 (5 handed) converter (http://www.selachian.com/tools/bisonconverter/hhconverter.cgi)
saw flop
UTG (t2600)
MP (t3715)
Button (t2330)
SB (t4130)
Desperate Hero (t725)
Preflop: Desperate Hero is BB with 4/images/graemlins/club.gif, Q/images/graemlins/club.gif.
UTG calls t200, <font color="666666">1 fold</font>, Button calls t200, SB completes, Desperate Hero checks,
Flop: (t800) 3/images/graemlins/spade.gif, 5/images/graemlins/spade.gif, 4/images/graemlins/heart.gif <font color="blue">(4 players)</font>
SB checks, Desperate Hero ??
Should I have pushed pre-flop? Folded? Taken a stab at the pot? Fold?
As you can tell, I have a lot of trouble deciding what to do when I'm short-stacked.
