($33): Aggressive short handed play, I'm bad at it!

[xJMPx]

The last couple weeks have been frustrating for me, so I'm looking to plug some leaks in my game.

For the most part, I've been getting my chips in the middle with the best hand and just getting drawn out on. So, I know things will turn around if I keep making the +EV plays.

However, I think part of the problem is having to push too often because my stack dwindles away, thus putting my stack at risk more and get called by those low PPs and broadways.

I went through my hand histories for the last couple days to find some hands that I've lost (donked away?) chips trying to be aggressive short handed and I'm looking for comments. Unfortunately, I don't remember what reads I had at the time. But, I had not been raising too much so my image should be solid.
