Testing Out a Short Stack Strategy

Here's my results of day one of playing a short stack strategy in 10NL on Walker Poker

I ran across this Beginner strategy for No-Limit Texas Hold'em. This was compiled by one of my twitter followers. I also follow them.
This is basically a short stack strategy and can be applied to cash, SNG, or MTT play.
I decided to sit in with 20BB (defined as a short stack in this system.)
I sit in and wait for the big blind to be posted. I get KK on my first hand. There is a middle position limper and everyone else folds to me. I raise to $0.45 (3.5 BB to 1 BB for the limper.) The middle position limper calls the raise. The pot is now at $0.95 and I have $1.55 in my stack.
The flop is 279 rainbow. My opponent checks. Betting pot would be well over half my stack, so I push all-in. My opponent insta-calls and shows AA. The turn and river are blanks and I'm felted.
I rebuy for $2.00 and sit out until the BB again. The same player is being fairly wreckless with a late of raises and basically bullying the table.
My first BB is Q8s. There are 3 limpers (including Mr. Crazy agressive.) The flop is GIN! QQ2. Since I expect Mr. Agressive to raise this pot (he'll be last to act) I check the pot. Play checks around to Mr. Agressive who bets pot. I reraise all-in. The 2 early position limpers fold and Mr. Agressive calls and shows Q6o. The turn is a 9 and the river is a J and we split the pot! ARG!
Rereading the strategy, I should have raised pot on the flop, but I don't think it would have changed the way the hand played out. I just think Mr. Agressive would have reraised me and would have went all-in or called all-in.
I then played for another 37 minutes (38 total) without seeing a playable hand.
Well, the point was to get comfortable withe the system and the system can't be held responsible for the cold deck hands.
I wound up down $2.50 overall. I'll be back trying this system in the days to come as I get time.
