Jury duty.....arrive at the parking lot by 8:15 am. The metal detectors take a few minutes and the elevators are awful.

Good thing Lloyd has all his chips in $5 denominations otherwise it might look like he's shortstacked.

Bart,

Curling is THE BEST sport outside of professional wrestling.

Amazing stuff.

I imagine if he were to do a real short buy-in for a NL game his strategy would basically be that you see in Ed Miller's "Getting Started in Hold 'em" -- which, by the way, is a tool I've used to get not only many people into poker, but got them started as winning players...

Pointless - I think not.

[/ QUOTE ]

The day I hit quads or top full and am sitting $100 behind is the day I quit poker...isn't this why we're playing NL?

[/ QUOTE ]

Miller's point was that an inexperienced NL player can be marginally profitable executing this short stacked strategy against great players who are deep. I even think there have been some big name players who have built up their bankrolls early in their career by short buying into huge games.


Sorry to hijack this back, but... How is this profitable in a limit game?

Imagine you have 1 BB.

Wouldn't you throw it out there in any position on any pair?

On suited connectors?

Think it would be profitable seeing through the river every time?
