Re: M2TR shortstacker illuminati thread
I'm so glad that I waded through the first half of this thread. I won't be SSing anytime soon, but I think this will give me a good basis of how to start learning how to counter this strategy.

Re: M2TR shortstacker illuminati thread
I have 2 questions.
1. Serious question. This sounds awefully like a push/fold application of the ICM-based SNG strategy. However, SNGs are geared towards winning top spot in a fixed prize pool (thus dealing in chip equity). How's this applicable to the cash game with unlimited buy-ins? 2. Silly question. Let's say you start as a SS with 20 BBs. using this push/fold strategy you double-up and the double-up again. You're no longer a SS. Do you leave the table and go play somewhere else? |

Re: M2TR shortstacker illuminati thread
alex thats called ratholing and people hate it, in fact I think its the main reason people hate short stackers. When I Short stacked clearing the stars bonus I would buy to full after doubling up I hated playing mid stack poker.

Nice start. I think defining a particular villain's call range to be the most difficult. Some are more stubborn than others, but , to me, there isn't a good HUD stat that helps me set the call range. [/ QUOTE ] yep...that just comes from experience as it is extreme from individual to individual how they will respond to shortstackers this brings up the equilibrium solution the graph and example I should had to do with exploitive solutions--trying to maximize verse a particular opponent however, one can just come up with a bland equilibrium solution that will be +ev verse any calling range play around in pokerstove and find the hands that work no matter the villain calling range |

dude, wtf are you doing? [/ QUOTE ] The fact that this response is only found in short-stacking threads is amusing. Any strategy post is giving away free info about how to play better poker. This is the same IMO. Short-stacking is no different IMO than playing like 10/4 or 8/2 or whatever some of the super nits out there play. You just need to adapt. In relation to the short-stacking strategy, I can easily see how ss'ing 6max is more profitable as the ranges people use are wider. In FR, most of the "good" short-stackers are getting it in pf only with like TT+/AQ+ because raising ranges are more easily defined IMO. In 6max, you need to raise more to at least stay with the blinds -> larger raising ranges -> more EV to push a wider range against a possible steal. A lot of SS strategy can be applied to or taken from MTT strategy, since very rarely will players have more than 50BB in a pot later in a tournament and you need to be able to balance ranges and re-steal if you want to be at least a decent MTT'er. Your analysis seems very interesting MT2R. I will check it out over break after I finish my 15 page paper..woohoo |

MT2R: You're a [censored] idiot. I'm sick of you idiots posting info about shortstacking to try and get attention. You're not good. You're not cool. You're probably not even a winning shortstacker at decent limits. Shut. the. [censored]. up.
Kursoh is getting a day off for posting this - so don't follow his example - diebitter |
