Default Re: beating the big NL games..

I'm hostile toward the shortstacking strategy because its ruining internet poker at the higher levels and I want to discourage its use as much as possible. Do you not agree that it harms the games at the higher levels?

Also you're right the issue has been beaten to death, but then why would you say something like "I thought the action behind you was part of poker". Its not like im calling raises with suited connectors then suddenly finding out there's a shortstacker behind me. Marginal hands become less profitable with shortstacks behind you but not necessarily unprofitable. I might still have correct odds to call with 68 but then when a shortstack pushes allin there's nothing I can do but grumble. Maybe you should reread a couple of those 5 million posts so you can grasp this concept.
