Actually, 56s has the best chance to beat AA of any hand in poker. The reason that it's a stupid thing to do is that the more short-stacked you are, the more poker becomes a game of making top pair. The bigger stacks are, the more you need to look for 2p+ hands, so these speculative sc hands become better to play. So if you want to shortstack ninja, stick to the bigger hands.
You beating 10nl yet?
