ivey, benyamine etc buying in for 16k?

[Bavid Denyamine]

why buyin full if everyone else is buying in short

[dsteff]

Short stack = mathematical advantage (all else being equal)

[Compit]

People also play too loose vs short stacks knowing they dont face the huge decisions.

i have only seen ivey buy in for 16k in plo ive always seen him buy in for 40k at the nlh tables...have people seen him buy in for shorter at the nlh tables before?

[mattgoody]

ya dude didnt he buy in 16k v CTS recently?

[EricS31]

maybe they arent computer savy and lazy and when they sit down they just hit ok on the default amount which is 16,000 at 200/400

Greenstein also showed he practices what he preaches when he bought in short during HSP.

You can't buy in short on HSP, he just got shortstacked from losing a few pots and didn't add-on.

he has no interest in the nosebleed games b/c they are too low for him. I mean the guys dosent even care about HSP deep stacked 3/6 games.

someone should get all of Benyamine's O8, PLO NLHE, HORSE, LHE stats from the past year compiled, I think he's on his 5th $2million downswing over the past year, yet still up overall
