Tightening up a bit with blind steals on level 4 seems to be one of the adjustments that the new blind level requires. Whereas in the past, pushing something like K4o in the CO with 6xbb at level 4 was probably a good idea, it may now be better to wait for a better spot.
Thoughts?

I don't notice any big difference between the old and the new level 5. I slip down below 10xBB most of the time either way.

The really big difference I noticed is when ITM. More postflop play needed there.

Well, I mean...with 6xbb at level 4 you go down to 4xbb instead of 3xbb at level 5 with the new structure. I think that's a notable difference. Obviously you're push/fold either way but there's considerably more folding equity with 4xbb.
