NL50 - 99 c/r'd by donkish shortstack

[rdrr]

Villian is unknown stats-wise, but from what I'd seen in a few hands, he seemed pretty bad; (or maybe I was biased by his stacksize [img]/images/graemlins/tongue.gif[/img])

Standard lead on the flop?

His shove really looks like a desperation semi-bluff after realizing he wasn't going to get a free card, but again, I don't know how I realized that without any statistical reads; I just had a feeling.

This isn't always a bad way to make snap judgements regarding unknowns IMO.

As for the hand I call.
You've got quite a few outs if you're behind and something like Ax h is definately a large part of his range.

Just my $0.02

Edit: I misread the flop sorry. Even though it's a GS SD not OESD I still call I expect AhJh more often than anything that has you crushed.

Call, shortstacks are dumb

[Unabridged]

shortstacks do this all the time with big pairs (call pf, cr the cbet allin on flop). and you are behind all broadway hearts, ie he could still be a fd pushing donk who just stumbled into a &gt;50% spot. any stats on BB?
