why did you go all in on the flop?? isn't that you are gonna only get called by a better hand?

No I really don't understand why not just bettin half of the pot and wait for the short stack to do somethin Id call even if he goes all in but I'd never try to push on the flop. is that dumb?? shall I move back to 50NL or 25NL??

because he represents aces preflop with his reraise and then represents them again on the flop. Yes you are only getting called by a better hand, but whats often the case is there usually isnt a caller. This is coupled with the fact that the guy is shortstacked and it is better to push than to check and have him push into you.
