..but if you hit anything you lose your stack!

I think this illustrates when its ok to slow-play and give your opponents an extra card to catch something. Note that had I bet the flop, everyone would have just folded. Instead I waited for the short-stack to catch that ace, then let him do the betting (again note NO reraise on the turn, dont want to scare him off) to sign away his whole stack.
