    Eh.. it's not like you are getting away from either hand.

    Playing against a short stack reminds me a bit of playing a tournament with large blinds/antes in relation to the stacks. You know there is a good chance that the short stacks are likely playing/pushing more marginal hands then the deeper stacks, but if they show down a strong hand it really doesn't tell you anything. They may have been willing to make those plays with weaker hands. Even the loosest of players get dealt real hands sometimes...

    Fold preflop. He's got aces and you are clearly beat here.
