Default Re: Changes in the game

Limit has definately become more aggressive. I think NL is about the same, but that the aggros know what they're doing a little better. I remember at Party, I used to catch about a fish a day comming over the top of my pf raise with a push-bluff. Or, if I had the nuts, I could just throw down my stack and be pretty sure someone would call. It's not like that anymore.

I do think that the increased stack sizes lead to more aggression on the river, however. Back when they had a 50 BB buy-in, you could easily get all your chips in by the turn. But now, you can bet the pot on every street and still have half a stack in front of you. This leads people to make big river bets to try to steal.
