Trust me when I say I have no intentions of sitting one of these tables.

I was curious because the table banter was pretty harsh in this guys direction. Probably due to past history but I was just wondering if players at this level see min buyers as an ATM machine, generally speaking of course.

Speaking of which - I'm watching a 10/20 table right now and just watched someone donk of 4 min buys in a matter of ten minutes.

Considering I've made about 50k shortstacking 25/50, I'm certainly fine with shortstacking.

I have a second request for you (the first was a video demonstrating )... Sometime when you have a chance, maybe you could post a thread explaining optimal strategy for shortstacking. I mean, I think I know what adjustments I'd need to make, but I'm not only curious about how you change your play, but also WHY you think it's more profitable than playing with a full stack (at a lower limit, if your response is the "taking a shot" thing).

i seriously think ive lost about 200k playing 25/50 and up its def the hardest level for me and i know ive ran way below expactation at it.

i think ill try shortstacking it if i ever rebuild enough

There has been a series of articles about playing with a short stack at a NL cash game in Card Player - but I think it was geared more towards looser, wilder games.

Yeah, I remember reading it... the general jist was wait for a big hand a shove.
