Why is it on this website that whenever your short stacked you getbeat by appaulling hands, I think it stinks.

     You answered your own question. It is because you are shortstacked, if you had a bigger stack then you wouldnt get called by the appalling hands. The key is to push earlier rather than later when you have much more fold equity. If someone pushes into me with a very short stack i WILL call with 72o but with a medium stack i would tighten my calling range. Make sure you dont get so shortstacked to make a call with any two cards a viable option then you have less chance of being beaten by these bad hands

    You can shove your short stack with awful cards... in position and before its too short! Then its not so easy to call :-)
