3-handed and of course I run into two monsters. Basically, if I survive to ITM, I get screwed. And it's becoming increasing more difficult to land ITM with my variance lately (see my AA sucks! post).

Also, on PartyPoker earlier, I pushed all-in with TT and ran into AA. Doesn't matter where I'm playing, I'm getting f*cked royally.

Well, the HU and 3 handed hands sucked... But, it seemed in a lot of the other ones, you were pretty decently shortstacked at the 150 and 200 blind levels... Maybe try accumulatin more chips a little earlier on?

I agree with Kenny. A couple of these are obvious pushes. But the first one certainly isn't. He's given you a free flop, probably trying to trap you. So take a flop and then push. He might fold if the flop misses him -- and you certainly got a scary flop there to work with.
