Default Re: Stealing the blinds in NLHE

What it comes down to, when changing raising amounts, is that I believe that my standard open pfr should change with my position. 4xbb all the way to mp3, then 2xbb all the way to the SB. No matter what my cards are.

Once people enter into the pot, then my standard PFR is 4xbb, unless there's a lot of people, then it could be more, dependent on the size of the pot by the time it gets to me and what cards I hold.

So I wouldn't be changing my best sizes. I would just have two bet sizes that I used all the time, dependent on my position, not on my cards.

The the risk/reward ratio...

This is why you would adjust your pfr downwards when in late position.

Basically all the responses I've received thus far have been "you don't want to steal in NLHE with deep stacks."

My own opinion is that every dollar matters in poker.

You'd figure if it were so risky to steal, then it would be just as risky to defend.
