Ultimate Bet No-Limit Hold'em, $.02 BB (6 handed) Hand History Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com (Format: FlopTurnRiver)

Hero ($3.56)
SB ($1.87)
BB ($1)
UTG ($1.81)
MP ($1.94)
CO ($1.30)

Preflop: Hero is Button with A, K.
UTG raises to $0.04, 2 folds, Hero raises to $0.18, 1 fold, BB calls $0.16, UTG calls $0.14.

Flop: ($0.55) A, J, 2 (3 players)
BB checks, UTG checks, Hero bets $0.3, BB raises to $0.6, UTG folds, Hero ???

This one looks pretty obvious but I just want to double-check. With his short stack, I push him all-in here, right?

I'm learning not to be result oriented and to think long term; I'm slowly getting there. At this point I want to make sure I make the correct play no matter what the result. Here I figure I am ahead most of the time but not all the time. So, long term, pushing should be +EV.

I have been trying to keep up with your posts miracle. You definitely are improving and working hard at it. I like to see your improvement, because most of the questions you ask help me learn the same thing. I like to be able to reply too, because I learn more about the game when I can give my opinion on a hand. Anyway, I just thought I'd share, and thanks.

OK incase no one else wants to say it you call here

You really shouldve just bet .55 on the flop (the size of the pot) and called any pushes

Call instead of reraise him all-in? If I call his raise, I am not folding on later streets for the .22 he's left in his stack. So I thought it'd be better to get it all-in right there.

Is TPTK in a raised pot stringer than in an unraised pot? If so, can you explain why? The only reason I can come up with is that in a raised pot you can narrow villain's range.
