Look at it as an opportunity to learn how to play correctly with short stacks at your table. Don't hate the playa...

If i have 200BB's covered on my right and a 20BB monkey on my left i am forced to sacrifice +EV opportunities to facilitate their desire to play no-thinkum poker. this situation cannot be played "correctly" against the shortstack as the real proper strategy involves maximizing the sum of my EV's against both players, which almost always means sacrificing some optimal gameplay to the damn shortstack.
