I don't. If I hadn't hit for two pair or better on the flop, it would've cost me only his open-raise, which bothers me not a whit on deep money.

your opponent has $240, or 60 big blinds. this is deep money? are you going to flop 2 pair or better and have it hold up 1 in 24 times? calling a $10 raise to win $240 seems like a bad play to me. sorry to be blunt. in general, I think you will go broke calling raises from short stacks with hands like 87o.

generally I consider anything less than 100BB to be a very short stack, and >250BB are when I start to think of things as approaching deep.
