for the past 22K hands or so i've been buying in short, and my ptbb/100 has went UP from around 6.5/100 to 11.2/100. Not to say that I ALWAYS buy in short now, as it really depends on the table, but i'd say to start I'll buy short about 60-75% of the time.

You are afraid to play big pots?
I bought in short because i was afraid to lose too much money.

no, i just find when i play 5 or 6 tables it makes my decisions much easier. there have been plenty of times that i'll turn 20 into 120+, but that doesn't mean i'm just getting up and leaving the table, especially if there's a couple of donks at the table who are just spewing chips. If i sit down and there is somebody like in the above example, then yes, i'll buy in full so i can get full value out of stacking them. The hand above just so happened to be like the 4th hand at the table.
