Well done on the cash Suz.
As Stu an Cos have said there are many factors to consider when working a short stack. If you often find that you end up short stacked because you don't have the aggressive chip building game that others do then why not make the short stack end game your speciality?
Once you know the basics the shove/fold game is pretty simple and there are many good spots that you will see for getting your stack in.
The time to start looking at shoving is when you drop to 15 to 20 BBs. This is your good 3 bet shove stack where you can attack aggressive players who are raising light. You still have enough at this stage to make them pass so 72 is fine as they will fold small pairs, weak aces, suited connectors etc. against a tight player shoving.
Once you drop to 8BBs though you have to be more selective. When a big stack raises he has to call your shove with atc as he is getting 2 to 1 on his money. He would've called you here with 82 and really didn't need to be so strong. He had the right price and was calling whatever he had so your shove range needs to ahead of his raise range.
Please don't take this as criticism Suz. It is intended to help improve your game and that is exactly what Cos and Stu are doing as well.
You have a good opportunity to add a new dimension to your game here and I'm sre you'll get plenty of good advice if you request it.

Thanks for the congrats guys and thank you Stu, Cos and Matt for the comments.
My initial thoughts at the start of the hand was "hes not getting my blind this time". I made an immediate shove after looking at my hand hoping to appear strong but as has been said I didnt have enough chips to make this move. As soon as he said "how much" I realised I was fooked as I had priced him in to call with any hand. A costly mistake which I hope I wont make again in a hurry.
Trust me nothing that is posted will be taken as criticism and I appreciate all posts.
I shall be posting crucial hands in the next 7 games (if I can figure out how to post them without it looking all higgity piggity) and look forward to some feedback.
Firing up stars now for game number 4
PS I would like to see the link too...post please x
