Matt Ruff, I don't think it is a bad play if you just put all your stack at risk and let the cards fall as they do. If you like money too much, as you say, don't play poker.

However, I think that if you are playing shortstacked, mistakes don't cost you so much, so you don't remember them so much and this is one of the reasons you should play big stack. It will really stuck to your memory if you make a stupid all in call with bottom two pair on river.
