Re: i hate rolf slotboom
The thing is, as I understand Rolf's strategy, is that 90% of these short-stackers are NOT playing his strategy. He states very clearly that you greatly prefer a full ring game (less blind pressure) and you prefer at most two short stacks in the game, and when he developed this system it was with deep, deep stacks squaring off (this helps protect your hand after you're all in). So when I sit at 6-max and it's two deep stacks (100+ BB's) and four short stacks (<50 BB's), it's not even Rolf's strategy, it's really something else entirely.
I don't disagree that it changes the game conditions greatly, and can be very annoying, but blaming Rolf for it doesn't seem quite right to me.
