Dealing with a short-stack - common situation
I have a hard time consistently getting into +EV spots against short stacks. Call or fold the flop? Villain just sat down about 1 orbit ago and bought in for $20.
Party Poker No-Limit Hold'em, $ BB (6 max, 5 handed) FTR converter on zerodivide.cx SB ($45) BB ($120) Hero ($53) MP ($63.48) Button ($19.90) Preflop: Hero is UTG with 9[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], 9[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]. SB posts a blind of $0.25. <font color="#CC3333">Hero raises to $2</font>, <font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, Button calls $2, <font color="#666666">2 folds</font>. Flop: ($4.75) J[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], 2[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], J[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font> <font color="#CC3333">Hero bets to $4</font>, Button is all-in, Hero ? |

Well, he's got a pp or a J. Don't think you are ahead of much here (33-88 AK or AQ). I think you have to lay this down without a read that he is on tilt or just playing a short stack push any pp strategy.

I fold. Villain is short but not crazy short. I expect to, at best, be 50-50 against two overs + flush draw.
