I hope to answer this correctly.

The advantage the shorties have is you cant get good implied odds against them.




2. How can Hero counter that effectiveness and even exploit it as a weakness?

Buy in full stacked , use position , 3bet them when you have their ranges in your sights and you are ahead.

3. What method(s) of game play and table management will allow Hero to counter most often?

Table selection involves looking at everything to do with the table, Stacksizes , and where to sit relative to stacksizes,having notes on the players.

Shorties make up allsorts of players, good , bad , beginners , ultra tight/loose . each have to be adjusted to individually. Have reads on them.
