All the money will be getting in on the river if you call the turn. If you push, you might get him to fold, but unlikely. I think your only option because he is short stacked is to push. With a PF limp, you could be up against a 2-4 straight or a A-3 or a slow played A-5. I might just call the turn if he had more behind him, but he only has $6 left. Depends if this guy is a donk or not. I would guess 60% or more of the time you are up against a weak A. Push and gamboool.

Yes him being shortstack means that one way or another, if you decide to stay in this hand, all the money is going him. You might as well be the one who pushes, you get a little fold equity (not much), you get value from draws that will fold (or check behind river) and you would pay anyway a bigger 2 pair.
