Re: 1/2/2 NL structure -- to steal or not to steal?
the idea behind stealing the blinds is so that when you actually have a hand people will begin to get sick of you winning 2.5 bbs unopposed and strt to play back with marginal hands. its a fairly rare game that you're going to steal the blinds more than 2/3 of the time which would make it neutral ev if u make a 10 dollar raise, but the added ev you get due to shania and metagame ectecetera makes up for it. also, especially if its loose-passive cbets should win hands the majority of times you're called anyway.
