Slowrolling doesn't work against shortstackers because they only ever risking 20bb and they're not going to give a **** if they win or lose.

Playing the turn and river is harder than it appears

Not that I concede that shortstacking is douchey, but are you seriously trying to argue that 2 wrongs make a right? If you enjoy it that's one thing but realize that it's not like shortstacking where there is some gray area about the morality of it, slowrolling is unequivocally scummy.

I play pretty much whatever I feel like when I start grinding.

Not much gray area imo.

"Hey guys, what you playing? Oh yeah, well now you're playing my game!"

But we've gone down this road before...

I'd like to know what mdm had in that hand...

Slowrolling is done entirely to piss someone off or for spite. There is no other reason to do it. Shortstacking makes money within the framework of the rules to the game.

Just accept that trying to argue that shortstacking is scummier than slowrolling is completely ******ed now.

FWIW I think both are scummy.

Whatever though, have fun being a bottom feeder.

Slowrolling is way worse than shortstacking imo... Way to slow the game down and look like a douche. Glad you lost that tiny pot.

Not to mention shortstackers are playing 12+ tables always so they don't even notice the slowroll.

Seems like Gene Hackman is way too tight compared to the shortstackers at 50 and 100NL.

This

People who are annoyed by shortstackers to the extend that it changes their decisions at the table (and slowrolling if you otherwise don't counts here) may want to reconcider their attitude towards the game and their pychological state and possibly pick up a copy of "Elements of Poker" or some such book.

I <3 shortstackers... who cares if you have to adjust, they're so easy to stack.

lol wtf is he doing up there. I saw him at 100 like 1 week ago, maybe 2? I recognize him which is either really good or really bad.
06-07-2008 , 10:57 AM
and shortstackers are ****ing bastards. I know your threatening with infractions, but they really do make me angry.

Like any time I have a huge fish in my BB, and a shortstacker sits directly to my left it basically makes the table unplayable. The only time I have position on the stupid jerk is when I'm in CO/button. But now I can't open too light cause the stupid SS will start shoving wider to take advantage of my looseness. And playing OOP vs the fish is about 1/2 as profitable as in position. Maybe even 1/3 as profitable as they will call down lighter (which is bad for me), and cold call lighter (also bad). Plus I like to play pots with a steal >40% a good portion of the time, and short stackers prevent me having fun.

so in a nutshell, death to them for cutting into my winrate.
06-07-2008 , 02:34 PM
sometimes, when i'm buzzed and playing for fun, i will shortstack a 2/4 game :O

06-07-2008 , 10:11 PM
Everyone's done with exams. This thread just sucks now because that's the way it is.
