Default Re: Short Stacked

I don't know of any good threads, but Harrington's book (the 2nd one "The Endgame" red cover) has a really good explaination and analysis of short stack situations. In this case, your "M" is only 4 - any decent hand folded to you in MP or later is an auto-push. If you let the blinds come around one more time, you're going to get auto-called when you do push, and even if you double-up (from 2500 to 5000) you're still in really bad shape. Harrington advocates pushing with any hand that is folded to you in this situation.
