My biggest problem with shortstack poker is playing shortstacked against a reraise.

Heres an example
Say I raise with 66 from MP and I 4x it and make it $1. Villain makes it $3. I'm dead in the water, because I have to call $2 into a $4 pot with what would be only $7ish behind on the flop. So I clearly have to fold or push. And pushing is mildly suicidal.

Now if I'm only going to hit a flop 1:8ish, and figure I get reraised 1 out of every 6x I raise a pocket pair and hence have to fold, don't pocket pairs become immediately unplayable for a raise preflop?

Should I *gasp* consider limping?
