Default Theory - Sitting with good players and fish....

say you wanted to follow a fish to 2knl or so and your regular limit is 1000nl:

you had an open seat with a fish on your right who was half stacked and 2 other good players who were 2x stacked..

would you sit with just $1000?

A lot depends on how fishy is the fish and how good are other players btu in general if you regular limit is 5/10 playign 10/20 once in a while shouldnt be too scary.. especially with a shortstack.

sit def w/ 1k cuz if other players full stacked generally at 10/20 not complete donks... maybe b/c ur range is wider against donk and ur halfstacked u look like fish urself and end up killing the table with ur jackoff image

i think that if u r tilty/a pussy/fear variance, sitting with just enough to cover the fish sounds like a very good idea. or if u r humble enough to admit when someone is better than u.
