4 of you left & 1 very short stack lets say 300/400. theres always 1(big stack) who nomatter what makes the short stack a big stack so were all back to square 1. im sure some people dont understand you only need to finish in the top 3 TO GET PAID

    surley this is the best idea. he has to have something to go all in doesnt he. so by betting to put him all in means hes folding more. This is a trait i use loads in MTTs Attack the shortys, punnish the limpers, and just in gerneral controled aggression.

    I know i play mtts alot so i might not be the right man to comment (would be great if JohnConnor or someone similar could confirm this to me) but surely raising and attacking the shortys blinds is +EV.

    What !!!!!!!!!!!!

    Big stack always beats the short stack, the short stack NEVER wins, the RNG doesn't allow it.

    Apparently.

    i would hardly call it a bad play tbh. As i stated i play mtts so dyms might be different, but if theirs a shorty im rasing their blinds if everyone else if folding 100% of the time to keep the pressure on em. Very profitable and +EV imo.
