Can't. Stop. Laughing.

Please please give up your shortstacking ways and play fullstacked.

Yeah, but if I has more BBs I would 4-bet and that ****** wouldnt call preflop. How often has SB now to raise with suited connectors and fold to my shove preflop to make it -EV for him being at my table?

This fish would have called anyways...

I'm not happy with this thread. I think its an outrageous assault on online poker democracy by an elite group of players who are displaying shocking contempt and lack of respect for those who play the game differently to themselves.

Pokerstars allow shortstacking because it caters for a particular poker demographic. Who are you to deny them the opportunity to shortstack if they so wish?

Are you ******ed? We're not stopping them from shortstacking we're just choosing to avoid the choochoo idiots.

Lol 'online poker democracy'

+1.

Poker is way bigger than this little group of whining bitches. Short stackers were at the tables before u guys were even born, gfy… literally, then go whine about it in another thread ftw

edit: and i hate shortstackers just as much as the next guy, but i also respect them because i understand they are just trying to push an edge like the rest of us

And now we are pushing the edge further by only playing at tables where they can't ss.
Its very NICE!

How about this:
I raise AK, ss push, passive fish behind folds KT.

I know how to build pots, I don't need a ss doing that for me.

It's a stupid dicussion anyways, it is what it is.

how do you find respect for ratholers? i thought they were commonly characterized as the scum of the earth and rightfully so.

lol judging by your hands these donks would have stacked themselves regardless of you being in the pot or not.

ahahahhahahahahha

ahahahhahahahahhahahaahahha


Do you really think people were running around on their baller computers with the brand-new 5 MHz 8086 processor calculating push/fold ranges for shortstacking NL games right around when Super System was written? You're ****ing stupid.

Poker is about looking into a man's eyes and figuring out his cards, not some douchebag sitting behind his comp wearing shades so as not to reveal any tell,shoving 20bb and leaving.

Die. SS'ers. This would be frowned upon in any live game, it's only acceptable online because everyone is anonomous, people have no shame.

I'm certainley not against shortstackers, but I'm against ratholers which is the key issue here - taking money off the table and breaking games.

meh

really, i think the short stacker argument comes down to this.

if you did this + ratholing in a live high stakes game, you'd be liable to get killed at the worst.

at the best, you would not be welcome at the game and every measure would be taken to make sure you can not sit.


also, on a more on topic note, im pretty surprised but i think the 50bb table only maneuver really is effective.

the 3/6 6m games are running at like 70% 50bb tables when I've been playing and the shortstackers def. aren't getting the same volume there that they used to (i think?)

the unfortunate thing is, the 50bb tables seem to run a lot slower, my hands/hr has been like cut 40%.

Dcal, NOT reporting this is pretty high up on the scum list IMO.

join or open up some more 50bb tables

-------------
also:

Maybe I'll start slowrolling people. It must be + tilt ev right????


But we're not doing anything wrong. We're just all going to play 50bb tables and start more of those tables.

lol reef it says quoting dcal zone but its quoting me,

are you accusing me of multi accounting?

conspiracy!!!!!!!

i just dont get how slowrolling would tilt people. it only tilts me when im running insanly bad, then it basicly adds salt to the wounds. but otherwhise i laugh about.

the appallingly poor logic displayed by the shortdonk sympathizers is amazing

if osama bin laden played poker, I'm pretty sure that he'd be a ratholer.

they hate our freedoms!

fyp

back to lurking plz.
