Default How do you play this hand against a short stack?

Have only been sitting for a few orbits but villian is a LAGgy short stack without a clue. Running about 50/20/3. My image is TAG. This min 3bet here just puts me on tilt so bad i just wanna push, although I have no FE against this guy. At the same time I don't really think he has too strong of a holding. I find myself running into these situations against short stacks frequently at the 25NL level, so I don't want this to be a continuous leak even if it is only for a 25BB pot. Go easy I'm new. (Sorry the HH didn't convert fully) Is this a call and put it in on a crappy flop? Is this a pf push? Feedback appreciated.

unless you have a note that he is 3bettin pretty lightly or willin to get AI w/ marginal hands then id just fold pf. W/o that read if you push here and he calls then your probably just flipin at best.

from a LAGtard short stack yea, you cant call for set value and we would play OOP... and its a high variance push, the range of hands he is callin w/ probably makes it a coin flip at best. Like i said id rather do this if i have a better read on villian...just b/c the villian is 50% vpip doesnt mean he is gona call a push here w/ a small PP or complete junk. But i just re-read your read on him. running 50/20 after only a few orbits isnt much but if you notice he is 3bettin crap and willin to get AI w/ junk then i would push 88 next time. If you already have this read then a push here is probably OK.
