Default Taking advantage of the short stack

CO was 71/18/1.3

How is my flop play... my reasoning was I might fold a low PP or weak 9 from SB or BB, and hopefully get to showdown against something like AT or KJ from CO, and it only costs me $.72 if I'm beat anyway.

Party Poker 1/2 Hold'em (6 max, 6 handed) converter

Preflop: Hero is Button with Q[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], A[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img].
<font color="#666666">2 folds</font>, <font color="#CC3333">CO raises</font>, <font color="#CC3333">Hero 3-bets</font>, SB calls, BB calls, CO calls.

Flop: (12 SB) 9[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], 5[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], 2[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(4 players)</font>
SB checks, BB checks, <font color="#CC3333">CO bets</font>, <font color="#CC3333">Hero raises</font>, SB folds, BB folds, CO calls.

Turn: (8 BB) 2[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font>
CO calls $0.72 (All-In), Hero calls.

River: (8.72 BB) 3[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players, 1 all-in)</font>

Final Pot: 8.72 BB

Default Re: Taking advantage of the short stack

I do this all the time against short stacks. It generally seems that they end up getting hyper-aggressive if their stack dwindles below, say, 5BB. I'm usually shown J3 in these situations for a rivered pair.
