Well, you should be getting called no matter what...

K8s is 39% against 2 blind hands...

Push &amp; pray?

If I am BB with T4500, I am calling any push by the shorty.

That's just me though.

You've got more than half the chips on the table. Why try to knock out the shorty when you can use him as leverage to keep jacking the blinds from the other stacks?

Oh, and you're always calling any two to rid the table of the shorty? Explain?

You may want to rethink this strategy.

I was expecting this reply.

OK, serious question. At what point do you call shorty's all-in with any 2?

Shorty = 100 &amp; you = 1000?

There has to be some point where this makes sense, right?

Why do you want to call the shorty? You don't need his 100 chips.
