In his article, Mr. Snyder demonstrates that structure matters when calculating M. No reasonable player would disagree. However, it is very likely that reasonable players who are accustom to particular blind structures already make these adjustments mentally.

You would think. However there have been numerous posts over the last year in the Books/Publications forum where Mason disagrees that tournament structure (speed) should have any impact on strategy whatsoever. He also claims to have asked Harrington if he agreed and reported that he did.

(As a sidenote if this really reflects Harrington's feelings I wonder how he would explain the logical inconsistancy of not adjusting for speed, but adjusting for a short handed game using "effective M.")
