Maximizing fold equity with a short-stack when you can't stop and go

[stevepa]

Say you have 5500 left with blinds at 300/600. Folded to the cutoff who makes it 1800. You're have a hand that is ahead of his range of hands but him fodling is a great result. (eg. AT/AJ and you want him to fold hands like 88-22, maybe AJ, and any live cards like Q9, T9, etc.) If you push, he'll be getting 8200/3700 or ~2.2-1 so he'll almost certainly call with most/all of those hands. Is there any merit to min-reraising and pushing any flop? Has anyone ever tried to do this? I haven't but it seems to me I would be far more likely to fold a hand like AJ to the 2nd line (assuming I miss the flop). That brings up the other question of who might this be effective against. Probably some kind of semi-thinking, tight-passive player.

If you don't like my example (he may never fold whatever you do) is there a better spot where this may be useful? It's quite possible this idea is completely worthless and I certainly have no evidence to back it up. Thoughts?
