From start to finish, you played this hand in a way that completely negates any strategic advantage associated with annoying short stack play. I don't understand this at all.

You played this hand like an aquatic animal, but not a shark.

I tottaly disagree with the way you played this hand. Insta reraise preflop for me, insta bet the flop for me etc. But hey, I'm just a small stakes grinder

I really didn't have any "motives" here. I was sick of studying for finals so I decided to play a little short stack.

I'd like to point out the fact that I pretty much never do this and am admittedly a fish when it comes to short stack playing. I generally buy-in full at 2/4 or 3/6 on stars and was feeling frisky. This was probably not the best line up to learn short stack strategy against, especially as I am not as well versed in their play as everyone else seems to be.

Lets assume I made it $300 PF and both Hallingol and BBuddy call. Just push any flop?

Thanks for the candid advice, Mike.

If you wanted "max value" out of the hand then the play was to reload to full stack.

i havent read all the responses, but i think just smoothcalling is a mistake. bbuddy will gamble with you preflop trying to bust you and he's not (at least when he is at least semi-sane) just some moron postflop that will double you up for no reson.

reraise preflop and stick it in on the flop.
