Does it make sense to raise this hand with these opponents? According to the shorthanded Open Raising Chart here on PS the minimum I should be raising here is K9o. However, I'm not too sure if I can play it here profitably. At least because of the shortstack on the BU. What are your thoughts on this?

Hello Avatars91,

Nope, you shouldn't raise such hands. Especially when having loose and short-stacks IP against you.

Best Regards.

Should I be raising only a range that I am willing to go broke with against the shortstack?

Most likely I'd be towards that. :) Or rather those hands which wont be often dominated and we can still even be ahead postflop as well with even just A high.
