Sure. The Key to Winning Shallow Stack HU:
Preflop, any K and any A are the nuts. Any pair is the nuts. Any Q is stealable. Fold anything else that isnt either suited or connected.
On the flop. Any A is the nuts, any pair is the nuts. Any draw is the nuts.
You have the nuts until your opponent says he has the nuts. If your opponent has the nuts, gamb0l.
The guy who pushes the most wins.

Isn't there a sticky somewhere with hand histories to back up proper heads up aggression tactics? Maybe Riptyde or Aok?

It's not what's inside that counts. Have you seen what's inside?
Internal organs. And they're getting uglier by the minute.

Keep in mind. If you are short-stacked and your opponent is appropriately aggressive, you are going to lose greater than 50% of the time. No amount of skill will beat aggression in heads up play, if you're outchipped and the blinds are high. It's good to fine-tune your game and make sure you're playing like 'rilla says, but that still is not going to make it so you win all the time or even most of the time when you're short-stacked.
