Villain was 47/2/1.3 over 47 hands. I really don't know about this hand. On one hand this guy appears to be a short stacking fish. On the other hand his move really looks like he had one pair beat. What would you do? How would you play this hand if everyone had full stacks?

I probably play the flop the same.

If you don't want to get KK all in here against a player with those stats, who is short stacked mind you, then well... I dunno.

Looks fine. If he had a full stack and only reraised with a monster you could consider folding. Since he's shortstacked you might as well put him all-in. On your reraise you're betting $9 into a pot of $16. You only have to win a little more than 30% for this move to be profitable.

I missed the call by the CO. You actually had to bet $9 into a $20 pot to put both opponents all-in. With odds that good, you have to play it as played.

If both CO and BB were full stacks I would consider crapping my pants.

I've been using odds more often to help make decisions when dealing with moves from short stacks. As a result I've picked off a few bluffs I would otherwise have missed.

It's pretty rare that I'd fold an overpair vs. a shortstack. It's pretty much impossible for me to fold an overpair against a shortstack with these stats.
