AA...do I get greedy?
 
The MP3 is pretty loose and playing short. At the time of the re-raise all-in, I have the option to re-raise. However MP3 is short-stacked, and he will call the "smaller" re-raise with any hand. I'm pretty certain a push will cause him to fold. For simplicity, I put him on a pocket pair. I can either push now and get him out of the way, or I can call and let MP3 commit about 1/3 his stack as a vast dog. If I let MP3 in, I plan on pushing any flop.

What's your plan? Push or call.

I think i speak for everybody when i say that this is a pretty obvious fold.

I would call and bet half of MP3's stack on flop and the other half on river if the flop isn't too scary. If it is, push flop.

If you do the calculations, there will be $286 in the pot on the flop should I elect to smooth-call and MP3 also calls, and MP3 will have $167 left. Betting half of his stack kind of seems silly, right? Anything he likes on the flop, he should probably be going with all the way...

If you give bad players a chance to do the min raise bluff push...they will take it.

Is there any other hand you would consider just calling with pf in this spot?

the answer to this question means nothing unless you think his opponent is capable of a third level of thought...which i doubt he is.
