so, Empire gave me $15 free for play 150 raked, and I built it to just under $60 at 25NL -- go me! So anyway....
I know this is a multiple hand post, but it has a theme -- in both I am against short stacks. I think both of these hands might be totally standard, but I just wanted to make sure.
Hand one -- read: none. This guy just came to the table and bought in short.
