It's actualy a reasonable offer.... *I* wouldn't take less than $150, but I wouldn't blame someone for taking the $100.

During the negotiations, I'd gently remind me opponent that if I double up just once, it's a whole new ball game, and it's VERY easy to double up Heads Up.

IMO, short stacks generally don't give themselves enough credit when making deals. That's why I'll almost never take a deal as the short stack, but would ive it serious consideration as the chip leader... not because I don't have confidence that I can win, but because I understand that the deal will likely be overly-favorable towards me as the chip leader.
