Updated SS based on what we can gather from taobot's posts. This is only for omaha games.

Is it m e or is it mostly the live players have these stupid ideas. I haven't seen the primarily internet players min buying, but Ivey, Cunninham, Benyamine, etc. are min buying very frequently.

pro's love cap games!

The idea behind min buying is to beat the table with the table's money. If you min buy for $40 at $200NL all you are trying to do is get your money in with the best hand alot of players will call an all in from a short stack that they might not call a $40 reraise from a larger stack. It's a good way to get calls on big pairs. Once you get your chips up to an average stack, everything else you're doing is icing on the cake. If you should happen to lose, oh well you only really lost $40. It doesn't work everytime but it can be an effective strategy

Yes it very effectively bastardizes any sort of etiquette or ethics poker has.

So basically Sagstrom and Antonius own everyone.

seems like Benyamine is in the second tier of winners, supporting DCJ's kuckoo claims throughout the thread.
