Default Re: Why Poker in General in Cashgame allows shortstacking?

Having a smaller stack forces them to be more cautious with their starting hands because when they enter a hand they have to have the best chance of winning

Briefly, the opposite is true, this is a cash game, not a tourney. Lastly they can never be bluffed out of a pot by a scare card as they will become pot committed much sooner than a larger stack. You can either trust me on this or read one of several books that address this subject.
