GregMerson on wsop.com - Page 3 - WSOP.COM -- Two Plus Two Poker Forums

don't think that's what people are talkinga bout.

buying in short is not an issue. it's buying in short, winning money, then leaving, and coming back in with another short stack...in other words: ratholing.

oh, disclaimer: i'm not accusing greg of anything as i've never played with him on party.

Understand that it's just a little confusing as to why these gripes are in a thread titled "GregMerson on WSOP.com", when most posters ITT have said they haven't seen any of what you're describing on WSOP.

Cliff's:

- "Yes, I shortstack / rathole on Party, but not on WSOP."
- "Poker's all about making money, and that's the most profitable way for me to play, so everyone else should just get over it."
- "I was shocked when PTR first came out and I saw that the 30BB shortstackers were some of the biggest winners, and I think the current games (on Party at least) are most exploitable by shortstacking, which is why I'm doing it."
- "I'll play up to 10 tables at once on WSOP, but usually only 2 or 3 on Party."

he also mentions how he cant beat the games without short stacking... in his opinion this is because hes traveling to tournaments and cant keep up with the meta

It's poker bro, we're all here to do the same thing. Don't like it? Start short stacking yourself.

Some players feel they have an edge short stacking...Welcome To Online Poker!

Merson didn't have a problem admitting it..so obviously he doesn't give a sh*t

When Merson was here in Vegas on wsop.com...I did see him pull some slick moves but nothing any other player wouldn't do..
