Default Re: 30/60 Limit Game in Toronto with experienced 50/100+ players 4hand

your databases in all likelihood wont accurately reflect the situation. the blinds play [censored] and the rake is negligable.

empirical results are so completely pointless for context sensitive situations.

it's like saying "hmm, well, i broke even defending my bb against an ep raise with A10off over a sample of 200 hands in my regular online game, so i guess ill just dump my bb to the maniac in early position who has been raising every hand since he sat".

doesnt necessarily mean that, but in this case, it is.

because their ideal response is to fold a lot more often than under normal circumstances, and what you lose in rake when they do defend, you gain from the additional hands they fold. successful steals arent raked.
