he quits people after taking most of their money if they get below 5 bbs and if they cant reload.

I'm not 100% sure but i think mntbkr is corrrect on this one. The math is on the side of the 5bb player.

Bryce once mentioned somethin like this...
maybe he could chime in;.

I HAVE watched many HU specialists..and many dont do this.

Maybe its just me, I get pretty tilted when there 5 BB starts to turn into more on BS hands. Perhaps if you can handle it the math works out....but I cant imagine its not close

I don't do it because if someone did it to me I would be really upset. It may be neutral ev but to me it's incredibly unsporting to stop playing at that point.

I dont have a problem with it in this sense because the one who cant reload are the ones who were gonna take 5 BB from me and leave

Yeah but they also probably lose money playing poker overall.

I hate getting hit and run but I've come to terms with it. I think a losing player has every right to do it, I also think he should be able to play down to his last bbs.

As long as the 5BB player won't quit until they are bust, the other player has an edge, and the rake is small, the winning player is favored. You have to factor in the future +EV situations you will gain if the small stack play favors the 5BB player.

i used to agree with you however, i have found that over and over again, given the oppertunity the other player will and it seems try to [censored] me right up the ass. so now my position is unless they are totally horrible and are a reg. i will do whatever i think is best for my short term interests.
