Re: Would a shorstack boycott on PS work?
[ QUOTE ]
raptor explained it perfectly - it also severely disrupts positional advantage/disadvantage at tables as well. playing against shortstacks isn't hard. playing against shortstacks, full stacks, and deep stacks is hard, because what's -EV against one is +EV against another PF. [/ QUOTE ] So suck it up and stop whining already. Boo Hoo poker not as eazy as it was 2 years ago.

Re: Would a shorstack boycott on PS work?
[ QUOTE ]
[ QUOTE ] [ QUOTE ] Like I suspected, no discipline. Instead of getting all emotional, stay calm, cool, collected, and play optimal strategy against them when appropriate. [/ QUOTE ] i really detest the fact that people say things like this. its not the fact that playing against the actual short stacks themselves isnt profitable, because almost all of theme are complete retards, and if everyone sat 20x id still make plenty of money. the problem is, that the proper strategy requires you to nit up to a retarded level so that they dont have a ton of fold equity on their resteals. this makes games play much tighter, which is just awful for poker in general when people are gambooling it up. i dont really have a problem playing against just short stacks, i have a problem when my fish get mad and leave because of said short stacks and the nittiness of the games. [/ QUOTE ] exactly. I've been sitting 300bb deep HU against a fish and then had a dude come and sit with 30bb. I ask them if they can please let us play HU and they of course ignore the request. Then another dude sits with 20bb. Then the fish takes his 300bb and leaves. Wow, if only I knew how to play profitably against short stackers, this wouldn't be a problem. I should probably just shut up and stop being emotional. [/ QUOTE ] Your such a nice guy for looking out for the fish LOL

Re: Would a shorstack boycott on PS work?
bk,
People in this forum support families, pay for college, and nurse massive coke drug habits off of this game. I don't know what you want to accomplish by laughing at them for caring that their salary's taking a big cut, but all you're doing is looking like a douche.

Re: Would a shorstack boycott on PS work?
Phil from the software forum is publically releasing a program in the next few days that will help shortstackers become more competent at shortstacking. it's also, from what i gather, a pretty cool tool for everyone else.
eventually sites are going to have to do something about it.

[/ QUOTE ] The sites LIKE shortstackers, the sites LIKE tight games. Tight games equal a larger number of smaller pots until the fish loose their money and get broke= more rake paid prior to live ones go busto. Who the hell would want to shortstack some wild ass game with 4-5 live ones? Not me that's for sure. As the online games evolve and the lives ones reduce in numbers strategies like shortstacking start to become more commonplace. I suspect that as things continue to evolve FT pro's will be playing other FT pros more often and playing deeper and more short handed. In any event complaining is -EV.
