Re: Ratholing NL08.
As I said, personally I will buy somewhat short, (but not as short as 1/5 the buy-in) and I don't think that a 33% buy-in min for instance is too low, but to deal with this, I think you would have to get the sites to raise the min-buy-in a bit, AND more importantly, extend the time period for prohibiting a player from buying short. 1/2 hour is too short to really cut in to profits. Make it 2 hours, and the players who play a lot of hands would think twice.
I have no problem with people making a profit and taking it down, BUT this should not be employed as a strategy to continually sit-out and rebuy and never put yourself at risk. IMHO it is unethical. I think PRED, who can play with a full stack, doing this is a little bogus. Certainly legal though.
