Although I understand that making stacks shorter is supposed to make in-game decisions easier we all know that most 1/2 players don't follow that lead. IMO by making stacks shorter we entice larger mistakes by weak/tight players who get sucked into bloated pots.
Perhaps not so much with other players, but when it's my B straddle there is rarely an opening raise since they are counting on me to do it for them. Thus Players can get trapped with stronger holdings OOP multi-way ... and pretty much get taken off their hand unless they smash the Flop. This is good for my stack IMO. GL
Maybe "easier" isn't the best word to use.
The weak/tight regs are still making the same decisions on their hands in straddled pots that they do in non straddled pots...because they make decisions based mostly on absolute hand value.
But, those decisions become less bad when they are 50 or 25 bb effective than they are at 100 or more bb effective.
GL to you too.
