I'd love to see someone with a large sample size running this kind of play. Bottom line is it works best to hit and run with this type of strategy. You can double up twice on a table then even the most aggressive just stop calling. Or only call with AA KK.

I don't have the patience to build a huge data set, but ran for 2 nights. Had to 6+ table 6-max and that was boring as hell. Full tables were better, but even more boring as the blinds don't come around as often. Didn't know what range to push so started JJ+ or AKs. Ended up about 24 to 6 busts. Didn't bother cashing out just pushed the double or triple stack when it was there.

Can't see any ethical issues at all. You need lots of available opponents as the play is so transparent, and easy to adapt against. Didn't feel like a winning longterm move, but short term ended up 15BB/100. Extremely unsatisfying poker, but kind of fun to be WAY ahead every time you see a flop. Would be fun to see how far you could open the range and still be +EV. Lots of loose callers down low.

I'm guessing bots could beat the fishes this way. Just got to program them to jump to a new table after taking down only the blinds twice, or doubling up 3x.

If I could 32 table the mid-stakes with the right roll it could be fun. Or hire a couple of kids at $6/hr to push when appropriate. [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img]

If you model the calling range of your average donk, aggressive, or gambler. I think you could get paid mega-tabling. Way too easy for good players to adapt at the high levels unless they are just calling for fun to swat the gnat.
