Might just be short term variance, if it is then ignore this.

You have 4 -200 days (assuming that's a buy in) in 2 weeks which is a lot. If you guys are playing until you have lost a buy in then that's a huge leak. At some point you have either to just call it a loss and pick up whatever money you have in front of you, or top off and play your 100bb game again. If you guys are sitting around with 50bb or less then you aren't playing as well as you could be.

We are still low on cash and are not properly rolled to play this ^^ When/if we are ever properly rolled for this, I'll be buying in for max and topping up when I can ^^

Ah I see. That's going to be a painful grind if people are buying in even less than 100.

Bluegrass is telling you not to play short. I agree with him.

However he said it's because you can't play as well when you're short. I assume he means you can't realize your postflop edge in the game properly when short. Once again I agree.

But really it's even worse than that.

The number one reason not to play short is, you get to a point where it's literally impossible to beat the rake.

Buying in for 50 bb's can be ok, but you should be prepared to top up often. Letting your self get down to 20 or 30 bb's too often is a losing strategy long term.

Agree with all the short stacking comments.

What time are the tables usually breaking each night?

Yeah ofc we want to play deeper but can't really afford it atm haha

Table usually starts around 6-7pm and ends around 12-1... a lot of times will go until 3-4am

Yesterday I was told one of the main russian fun players is back in cambodia now, so games should be good again

The table at queenco has changed from mostly russians to now mostly chinese hit and run specialists... Theres 3 of them hit and run any chance they get its unreal... same **** everyday... The wrong people are running good so the game isnt lasting as long as it should -.-

Folding KK pre seems to be the answer :P

In all seriousness, when people 3b/GII range is KK, AA folding KK to pressure can be +EV.

Uh they are buying in for 50 bbs and sounds like the don't reload constantly so there are plenty of times they are even shorter than that.

They should never be folding KK preflop when shortstacked.

Ok if it's the tightest OMC of all time then maybe.

Otherwise, no way no how should they be folding KK preflop as a shortstack.

Not when you're SS obviously. I haven't heard the details of the hands, I don't know if he was <50bb for all of them.

Really cool thread, subd and best of luck to you guys.

Is the liver poker scene out there pretty easy to find or widespread? Will be through on holiday later this year and would be happy to come and donate in your game or buy you guys a beer.
