Default Re: Limping behind short stacks

Lets say the shortstack is passive postflop but calls down with any piece of the board. With 22 you won't be able to take it away from him on the flop unless he completely missed. Finding out if he completely missed will eat up most of your profits from doing so and you are basically playing for set value with low implied odds.

For 88+ a raise is for value.

Is this "lets see the flop cheaply and bet if we hit" kind of logic?

kind of. I think I was really overestimating how often the problem I was thinking of actually occurs, and pretty much just inventing a problem where one doesn't exist. I'll probably try messing around with this in the next week or so though just to see what happens.
