Re: 2 Pair OOP MW
I normally just play these sort of hands fast. I don't think the shortstack changes anything compared to it being HU, as it is barely a raise anyhow.
The reason I like to play them fast is because the turn brings so many cards that either make our decision much harder and/or freeze up any potential action. It's much simpler to play this way, and thus you are less likely to make mistakes on scary turns.
This doesn't neccessarily mean that it's the most profitable way - I would like to know how a sneaky sneak plays the turn when it is a K/Q/J/diamond or blank.
Also, I don't like preflop: You are against a good player and a shortstack, so unless CO is particularly bad it's going to be difficult to get much value from the hand.
