Default Shorthanded Stud/8, Only Low Card Completes Bring-In

One reason that I shy away from short-handed stud/8 is that I don't know what I should do in this spot, where the bring-in has the only low card and completes the bring-in and he seems to do always do that in this spot, or at least he has the last 4-5 times. This is a play that I don't make.

Since there are fewer antes in the pot, you have worse odds to defend against this play than if it were a full table. So it seems like you should play fewer hands than if this were to happen at a full table (if you had the same number of people behind you left to act) . (But it is much less likely to happen at a full table and, if it were, the cards that are out would likely greatly impact your hand.)

Any thoughts on this short-handed situation? How often should you be reraising on third street?
