While playing a No limit Holdem, short-stacked game the movement of the game, rules and format of your stack could mean that a rise of 10-15% pre-flop could be carried out if required to do so also if the player feels that the other players playing a loose game would call. In this kind of a game the player should expect to give a hand anything like the 6-6 call on bad odds. And if the loose player happens to catch you, they might have the possibility of losing it back if they call with pairs that are small which will be a definite miss in the long run.
Players in this situation could end up playing hands which are like the weak Aces stronger, and this is recommended in this type of a situation. This would result in calling for a flush draw. So if the game that is being played is a wild, short-stacked, no limit game then the player would make a raise much often in block out draws as much as he can while he keeps the second best hands as snare. This move he makes especially if the limper is just playing or if one of the blinds raises instead of the player doing so. With this move, even if you happen to lose, you will end up protecting your hand of the pre-flop. Also if the players are loose and hesitate to put in the money, you could also be a winner in the long run.
