Default Re: Live play = free monies

cr,

where do you play live? CA-style drop is particularly bad for 2/4.

as long as you're willing to move down in a hurry when things don't go well, i think you can get by with a lot less than 300BB when playing live. everything moves so much slower that you'd have to be really retarded/a nuclear tilt monkey to not notice that you were going to busto.

btw, people say that 2/4 and 4/8 aren't that much different (like wook just did). i have substantial experience with these games and i disagree. 4/8 is, generally speaking, not as loose or as passive as 2/4. the extra aggression is actually kinda nice, though, as it isn't very difficult to manage and it often means bigger pots for you since someone else is willing to raise when you have a good hand.

anyway, the moral is: quite being such a pussy and take a shot.
