Default Re: VS Shortstack

When I play against a short stack, I make them commit their whole stack as quickly as possible. If you don't want to put him all in on the flop, try a $9 bet (he has $14 left). If he folds, great - take the 1/4 of his stack that is already in the pot. If he has a J or 4, I'm paying him off.

problem is shortstacks like playing face cards. they like to checkraise/call down. this happened before and a different villain shows KJ Top Pair and beat my 2nd pair. what if I had AK instead?
