[QUOTE="IveGot0uts, post: 1362726, member: 45459"] Snow, I'd say you nailed the reason for the hatred. You can correct for them and adapt to them, and table select to put them in less obnoxious table positions, but there's no denying a couple shortys in the wrong seats can mess up your SC's and a lot of plays you'd normally be able to tear up a full stacked table with. KK, you may want to take into consideration that your current play style, perhaps due to your preflop raise sizes, or flop bet sizes, or both, is geared towards generating aggressive and favorable SPRs with your medium stacks. Maybe this is generating an image that carries over into the time when your stack is deeper? Just a guess at what the results might be illustrating, also a common mistake is being a bit too willing to stack off while full stacked, remember the deeper your stack the better your holding will typically be when you want to get all in. Sounds like you're on track, but just some thoughts that might lead you to some sort of gain. I say this because you should be adjusting your play based on your stack sizes, check out information on SPR's for more info on this recommended reading is Professional No Limit Holdem by Miller Mehta and some other guy. Also remember, when you have the money, its yours. Period. I'm sure you "know" it, but it helps to KNOW it, if you get what I mean there. If you're looking at % returns instead of direct dollar or BB/100h, then you shouldn't expect an amazing pick up in the short run by starting stacked, or at all perhaps? As your initial investment is much larger, so stacking up to 3x max buy in as a half stack means a 500% increase as opposed to a 200% increase as a full stack. Also, many of your oppoenents won't have full stacks, so when you stack them, maybe you'd have them covered when you're half stacked, or just weren't leaving all that much on the table, but in the big picture you'll make more the times your big hand happens to come up early on and you have the full stack to stack a full stack. Sorry for the derailment, but that is to be adressed in a new thread to be started soon. [/QUOTE]
