In 3 months shortstacking 5/10 at Full Tilt, I saw 2 guy besides my self who were even half decent at it.

I will go out on a limb and say that there arent more than 10 guys in the world who shortstack 5/10 or higher profitably. There are alot more who could, but they are playing full.

The rest of the morons you see doing it ARE NOT WINNING. So what if it changes the dynamics of the game. They are still putting money into the poker ecomony. Its not like the moderatley bad full stackers are losing at 10+ PTBBs. Most regular losers are losing at more like 1-4 PTBBs. The bad shortstackers are doing the same thing. It doesnt matter how much they lose in one hand, only how much they lose overall.

And why on earth would a site voluntarily forego all that extra rake just to keep the pro grinders happy?

I just can't see it ever happening...


and 'pro short stackers' just don't exist below $400 - if they did I would have seen them by now.. I have short-stacked $200 tables on a lot of sites...

You have to be a pretty good poker player in general to be a good shortstacker, so if you take the small subset of good poker players and narrow that down to peopl ewho want to shortstack AND can figure out how to do it correctly, you can see the number is VERY small.

I have plenty of data to prove that from my 2-3 months shorting at Full Tilt. I ran all of the reg shorters thru pokerEV and saw what I needed to see.

People just want to be able to reraise with 97s or whatever and not have a shorty go all in behind them. What they dont realize is that alot of the time they are better off if the guy behind them is short.
If the guy behind them is a good full stacked player and has a hand, they are going to be in much worse shape because they are never getting to showdown in that spot.
