Open-raise may be a little over-aggro, but I'm wondering about the call. Shortstacks in these things tend to move in with a wide range of hands. Is my call with 66 ok here? I figured it was likely a coinflip and he might be drawing to 3 outs, and I had already put in 100 with not much more to call. Thoughts?

I don't like the raise at all. If you get called, you are in a coinflip situation at the very best. You'd better be damned confident in your post-flop skills. If you don't get called, you just picked up t45 in blinds, which is worthless.

Being that you did raise and the short stack went all-in against you, I think the call is alright. I still like a limp much better though, and fold to a substantial raise.
