standard deviation for shortstackers is low, but winrate is too, so bankroll requirements turn out to be pretty similar to full-stackers. also, ban.

winrate does not have to be low.

this is simply not true, and though I don't care what he thinks, I doubt slotboom would claim otherwise. i've seen the data, and no shortstacker beats any game online for more than 2-3 ptbb for any sustained period of time.

Slotbloom explicitly states that shortstacking will no win as much.

And the Slotbloom shortstacking is for full tables I believe.

There are certainly situations when buying in short is the optimal strategy.
