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...
