Default Short stack babying example

The hand converter never EVER freaking works for me, but this hand is very simple so it shouldn't be a problem.

A few weeks ago I posted on the strategy of "babying" the short stack when you have a big stack, refusing to put him allin on the bubble so you can hammer your other opponents. Here's a good example of this strategy. Blinds were moving to 250/500 next hand.

NL Hold'em $200 Buy-in + $15 Entry Fee
Blinds(200/400)
Total number of players : 4
Seat 1: Victim1 ( $1540 )
Seat 3: Victim2 ( $1840 )
Seat 8: Hero ( $5910 )
Seat 10: Shorty ( $710 )
Dealt to Hero [ K [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] 7 [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] ]
Victim1 folds.
Victim2 folds.
Hero folds.
Shorty does not show cards.
Shorty wins 600 chips

I went on to get dealt 53o and 62s the next two hands and went allin both times. Everyone folded. Then it was folded to me in the blind.
