Message: [QUOTE="RogueRivered, post: 1061243, member: 45593"] I'm not sure I get what you are saying here. I've read that the short stack strategy is good for beginners since it shortens the betting rounds, therefore taking away post-flop skill advantages of the large stacks. It also puts large stacks in uncomfortable positions in relationship to other large stacks when they are considering calling all-in from the short stack. Ed Miller's book Getting Started in Hold 'Em covers the short stack strategy and he thinks it's almost a guaranteed winner if followed perfectly. Online it is very easy to change tables and bring in the minimum again, rather than risking any gains by continuing to play on the same table (with people out to get you!) [/QUOTE]
