Default 2+2 Heresy - YOU SHOULD ALWAYS BUY IN SHORT

...then play the BB and SB before topping off for your button.

This will negate your positional disadvantage for 2 hands. What do you think?

Edit: Negate is the wrong word...reduce is better

Interesting. But seems a waste of time.

Disagree here. I get a 77 while on BB and button raises me I want to be able to play for set value. How mad you going to be when you are dealt AA on BB? There are so many advantages to playing with a full stack that its just not worth the few pennies.

Jouster,

I would say that the edge a decent player has against all opponents on the table at the micro stakes more than negates the disadvantage of playing out of position. By this, I mean that I would happily play a large amount of hands OOP against most opponents I come across at 25nl/50nl, and would rather do so with a full stack seeing as I am likely to get paid by a ton of worse hands postflop.
