lol @ dohh argueing about playing with regs when you avoid them like the plague and have been at 30nl for your life without having the balls to move up like pryce said you will always win small it's just a matter if you can be bothered to grind for it Posted by zing
Not arguing fella just posted a question, got a reply, so asked another question.
Trying to learn/understand if anything.
Even @ 30nl u get loads of people that fit pryce's description, and I try and outplay them all the time. It seems that in itself is a mistake as it can't be done? find that hard to believe like.
Think of me as a nl4er trying to get a sneak peek into the mind of a pro, might get answers then
Stanley644 is the exact reason why this needs changing, he plays every 40/50nl table with 10bbs, i for one am now logging off becuase of this genuis, sooner u change this the sooner you'll recieve my rake, good-day.
I only play the small stakes where you get quite a few of the 10bb players. I don't mind playing them as they may double/triple up but more often than not they stay on the table but are not sure how to play with the "larger" stack or just carry on gambling. It is just another way of playing which you have to adapt to. variety is the spice of life guys i voted to keep it the same.
maybe you could have some cash tables (like those where you can start with 200bb) which specifically has only a full 100bb "buy in"? the TV and other tables are highlighted differently so maybe others could be too?
Why change things? If you're good enough to play on the table, Your opponents stack should never be an issue! Your mindset should always be how and when you're going to take it!
Change can be good! but the changes taking place at the minute do seem to isolate smaller bankrolled recreation players IMO. If those players are discouraged you'll end up playing the same faces over and over again! I voted for 10 bb but would always stake the maximum if I could afford it! some players can't and don't want to put in more than the minimum. please let them be!

This might be the worst idea ever but check this thread doh!

This is so fundamentally wrong, I can't even begin to explain it. A 10bb raising vs a 50bb stack raising vs a 100bb stack raising vs a 200bb stack raising are all completely different situations that need serious considerations. 10bb stacks force short-term all-in action by constantly getting marginal hands in preflop, disrupting the play of everyone else, and also giving them the worst return possible on their gamble when the pot they win caps the rake, whereas any larger stack would beneift on amounts won after the rake caps.
e.g. £0.50/£1, £10 stack goes all in from SB, BB calls. SB wins, pot £20, 5% rake, £1, SB is +£9 on a £10 bet.
With tiny stack sizes, rake eats up a chunk of any pots they win.
