- Why are you shortstacked?
- Reraise preflop.
- Reads?
- My standard line would be to check turn and push river to get calls of TT-QQ.

- I always shortstack now
- I wanted to disguise my hand.
- None or I would have posted them. Sample under 50 hands.

i think your only two options are push or bet pretty small, like 250. i don't think it really matters. I probably push.

if you bet 250, it looks a lot like you're really trying to nickle and dime him into playing for effective stacks.

shortstacking a high stakes game doesn't seem like it should actually go in a highstakes forum

What, because the players are worse then anyone else playing 10/20 on stars? Should it go in the High-Stakes Shortstacking forum? Maybe every other post should be put in the Deep-Stacked poker forum?

Gabe, please get off my nuts.
