Default Like Doyle says: Never double up a short-stack donk in an unraised pot

My gf (who also plays and is OK) didn't agree with my action on this hand. I thought it was pretty str8 forward and easy. What do you think?

The guy who open shoves the river is 66/3, the caller, snap called and is 16/0. To be honest, though, I wouldn't have known that because I really don't give shortstacks at these levels enough to care what their stats are.

Poker Stars - No Limit Hold'em Cash Game - $0.50/$1 Blinds - 6 Players - (LegoPoker HH Converter)

<font color="black">Hero (SB): $105.60</font>
BB: $58.60
UTG: $17.70
MP: $56.00
CO: $97.00
BTN: $17.50

<font color="black">Preflop:</font> Hero is dealt 6[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] A[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] (6 Players)
UTG folds, MP calls $1.00, 2 folds, Hero calls $0.50, BB checks

<font color="black">Flop:</font> ($3) 4[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] 5[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] 8[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] (3 Players)
Hero checks, BB checks, MP checks

<font color="black">Turn:</font> ($3) 7[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] (3 Players)
<font color="red">Hero bets $1.50</font>, BB calls $1.50, <font color="red">MP raises to $6.00</font>, Hero calls $4.50, BB calls $4.50

<font color="black">River:</font> ($21) 3[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] (3 Players)
Hero checks, <font color="red">BB bets all-in for $51.60</font>, MP calls all-in for $49.00

Hero?

Seems like a pretty easy call here, we lose to the 6-9 here and that is it, and we are getting 2.35 to 1 on our money here. I would call and expect to be splitting either the BB or MP's money.

nobody sane calls bb without a straight. The overbet is a classic stackadonk move for a hand like 69. That being said I don't know if i can find a fold here. The 66/3 makes me call. Against 2 nits I think i can fold.

You say in that spot it would make sense to do that with 96?
Is that really true? Normally i would think that i get two pair to fold with an overbet like this.
But any straight i calling i guess...

if your GF smacked you upside the head for completing the SB w/ trash then she was right

if she then kicked you in the ass for not pushing the turn then she was right too
