I've posted this on my blog as well as in the Illuminati thread...

Shortstackers aren't some unbeatable force! Most of the shorties that I have seen at 100NL 6-max aren't really that good (either play way too loose or way too tight). Some full-stacked opponents adjust to me very easily, others do not. It's just a different form of poker, people who whine about shortstackers are just too lazy to adapt. There are countless posts on here about how to bear short-stackers, it really isn't some all-powerful strategy that guarantees winning.

Personally, I'm using it to grind up my bankroll so I can jump back into full-stacking, but right now I am at a good comfort level short-stacking.

I will post the graph in a little while, I'm at the library right now actually doing HOMEWORK ZOMG.

-This was a huge month for me as a poker player. Last month sucked I finished at about 2.5pt/100. My goal was just to be at 3pt for the month and I finished at 4! I feel as though I really improved as a poker player.
-Finally got my new monitor and finally am a 12 tabler!! (now that everyone else is playing 18)
-still a lazy ass though and couldn't come close to cracking my 100k hand goal, at about 70k

goals for next month:
-maintain at least 3.6pt/100, hopefully even more than this month though
-crack 100k for the first time
-Finally hit SUPERNOVA! around 17k points to go
-get more comfortable playing $hitloads of tables
-continue reviewing hands/fixing leaks
-be a good contributor to 2+2
-get better at stealing

[/ QUOTE ]I'm not too lazy to adapt. I make plenty of money from crappy shortstackers. I just think playing against shortstackers (good or not) isn't fun. When I want to play shortstack poker, I play STTs. I play NL HE for the complexity that comes with deeper stacks. It sucks when you can't make plays because a shortstacker is involved in the hand. It just makes the game less enjoyable.

So that's my frustration. It has nothing to do with profitability.

Bad month for me.Plenty of bad play. My CPU [censored] the bed so I only have a partial graph...first 50K hands was slightly>breakeven.

I'm getting a bit burnt out but need to get my 300K VPP milestone bonus. Looking forward to a 2 week vacation after 7 months of grinding.

Goals for Nov.: Play better, run better and actually make money instead of donating.

[/ QUOTE ]



Also 3.5k in bonuses. I actually lost $$ in cash tourneys but did win a PCA seat which netted to +6.5k.

All together a $20k month.
