    Default Overpair vs short stack

    No reads - first orbit at table. I think I should've folded to the final bet, but it was hard since he was a short stack. Would you call or fold, or do anything different?


    Party Poker No-Limit Hold'em, $.5 BB (9 handed) Hand History Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com (Format: FlopTurnRiver)

    UTG ($47.70)
    UTG+1 ($18.25)
    MP1 ($48.25)
    MP2 ($37)
    MP3 ($60.55)
    CO ($105.59)
    Hero ($51.80)
    SB ($25)
    BB ($43.75)

    Preflop: Hero is Button with Q, Q. SB posts a blind of $0.25.
    6 folds, Hero raises to $2, SB (poster) calls $1.75, BB calls $1.50.

    Flop: ($6) 5, 8, 3 (3 players)
    SB bets $4, BB folds, Hero raises to $12, SB raises to $23 (AI)Hero calls $11. (3:1 odds. At the time I was trying to get us all in, but now I'm not sure if it's a lesser pair or bluff often enough. he could put me on a button move and do it with a lessor pair, but it could also be a set or slow played AA/KK....)

    Final Pot: $53

    With no manuverability because of the short stack you just won't have enough info one way or the other. I call it...it works in my favor maybe 3/5 of the time.

    I call while violently convulsing....either he has the set/KK/AA or he is bluffing on an OESD.
