Villain is in mega tilt here. He's a little prone to it anyway and is not afraid to make a move. How much does the short stack effect your decision making process?

You have a strong hand with top two pair, two backdoor flush draws and a low draw. I would call the raise everytime against two short stacks. Heads up against a full stack I would probabaly raise all-in too because only a set together with a better low draw would have you crushed.

If second villain who called your initial bet have a full stack the decision becomes more involved and you should consider which hands she flat calls with and how often she will fold to an all-in.

By the way with this kind of hand in early position (especially against an opponent on tilt) my prefered line on the flop is a check-raise.

since nikii is short, too, i find this to be a fairly easy call. that being said, i'd like to know more about the two villains (that could change a lot). i think you can fold to decrease variance, but i think you're giving up EV (but not that much for this level).

whether to bet out or CR on the flop depends a lot on the table texture... esp whether you think anyone will bet for you.

Well, it ends up that the shorty was pretty much drawing dead with 3478 or some crap like that (she did call after I did).

Elgrundo had 245x and of course the turn and river came 6-7 and he scooped. Turns out he was a 52/48 fav over me heads up, but in the 3 way pot it was something like 50/45/5 for him/me/her IIRC.

I think I should have reraised all in preflop and would likely have taken it down there, and I'd have checkraised but wasn't sure the flop was getting bet or not so I figured I'd throw one out there.
