The fact that he's leading out and not check-raising is an excellent sign. You're ahead here almost all the time.

Fold preflop. Tilty shortstack will most likely push on most flops and he doesnt have enough behind to reward you for hitting enough to offset preflop calls.

The shortstack doesnt have enough but Joe does(he had me covered). And he called. You still think it's a preflop fold?

Actually, Joe will probably make it a good call. Since he loves to call weak.

Hey that's the Rounders hand.
