Default Re: NL: Why the hate on short buy-ins?

[ QUOTE ]
I wonder sometimes why these short stackers don't just take their chips and go to a lower limit table - the players are worse (which makes things easier), and if all you're doing is waiting for a premium hand to push all in, wouldn't it be better to pay lower blinds while you wait? Seems kinda dumb to play short stack against better players on higher limit tables, and it doesn't do much to develop your poker skill... I can't recall ever seeing a short stacker make any real money on the tables I play...

you won't get the calls with the rag hands as often at the lower limit tables. i just do it for fun, usually at the end of the night after grinding it out playing "proper" poker. i can assure you, if done correctly, you will profit in the long run.
