"I have a big hand and pot odds. I fold"

[ QUOTE ]
the arguement "we have a short stack, so i'm not folding with aces" is stupid

Not really. I think it implies a lot of the other factors that you're thinking are legit. Besides, when you get AA on a short stack, you should be focused on the best way to get all your opponent's chips in, instead of how to wiggle away leaving yourself 8BB or less. Just my opinion.
