Default Re: Small Blind, You\'re In Anyways...

You are not playing for money - you are playing for bets, measured in BB/100 that you win or lose. Do not ever think that "its only $1", its 10x the big blind, and how that bet measures relative to the pot, your stack, etc. that matters.

In a limit setting (easier for this purpose) and you are facing a bet on the river...the dollar value is absolutely irrelevant whether you are playing 2/4 cent or at the Bellagio playing 4000/8000. It's a bet of x into a pot of y, and how does my hand fit into the textures.

One of the single easiest ways to be a broke microstakes (hell any stakes) player is undervaluing money.
