One more point. When calling a raise with a small pair, ask yourself this:

"How often when I flop a set will I stack my opponent/opponents?"

If X = opponent's stack size, Y = percentage of time you stack opponent, and Z = the amount you must call.

Only call if X*Y > 8Z

Just a little math to brighten your day.
