I like the way the tables are separated.
Work on improving your game and whining less.

Why am I not surprised that most of your other posts are in the micro forum? You don't play against good shortstackers. Good shortstackers can use a strategy that is close to unexploitable and with the rake pretty much unbeatable. And if you do concentrate on beating them, or taking away their edge, you lose your edge against the deepstacked fish. Please come back when you know what you're talking about.

Nope, they are not easy to beat and I'd be surprised if you could show a positive winrate after rake against a good shortstacker.

Nope again, the thing most people hate is that they play a close to unexploitable strategy and even trying to beat that strategy only involves making marginal preflop calls, not actual multi-street strategy.
It's funny seeing micro players who probably have yet to see a professional shortstacker comment on shortstacks. Keep in mind Stars doesn't have 50 BB tables at 25nl and below I believe. The reason is there's no shortstack problem because there are no good shortstacks that would waste their time playing 25nl. They're either nits who don't understand how to shortstack properly or just fish on their last few bucks. Either way they probably lose even before rake so it's an edge for everyone at the table. But when a pro shortstacker is at your table, it is simply very annoying to play. When there are 3+ at a 9-man table it's basically unplayable because I may as well have 20 BBs myself and if I wanted to play push/fold poker I'd go register in some turbos.
