hypothetical? you have a monster pre-flop,short-stack to act after you

[soxfan70]

LEts say you are dealt a monster (KK, QQ, or AA) there's a short stack(less than 10 BB) to act after you. Is there an argument to be made for just calling, and hoping the short stack pushes? OR should you put in your standard raise, and whatever happens, happens?

Generally if I am on a short stack, limpers discourage me from pusing unless I have a premium, so the call doesnt really do all that much I don't think. I would just put in the standard raise, and hope someone plays back at me.

depends on the situation. I definatly think that can be the correct play in certain situations.
you're utg and look down at AA. The super aggro big blind just lost an all in to a slightly smaller stack and he only has 3bb's left. I think you could call, hope he pushes(most of the time he will) and raise all the limpers all in. Of course you would want the stakes to be pretty high so that you make a substantial profit from the limpers who later fold.
