Re: Shorthanded O8 hand, paired board, shortstacked opponent
[ QUOTE ]
Question 1 - how's my play?
[/ QUOTE ]
RH - Seems all right to me.

Question 2 - assuming you know nothing else about your opponent, what is your up-front expectation of him given he's starting the hand with less than four BB?
[/ QUOTE ]
Players with a small stack will often tend to take bigger chances than they would with more chips. They’ll often go “all-in” with poor hands.

Question 3 - given your answer to 1 and 2, would you play any different if the opponent was normally stacked (again assuming you have no other info on him)?
[/ QUOTE ]
Yes. I'd fold to the bet on the flop.
