Re: Buying in Short in Mid NL games
Ed Miller is a big advocate of the Short Stack No-limit strategy. He basically says NL is a flawed game because of it. Essentially you buy-in with just enough to make NL holdem a 2 betting round game.
The strategy basically states that you have to use extreme PF discretion and only raise with premium hands. When you do raise enough to where you commit yourself to an all-in on the flop no matter what.
So it's Raise PF, All-In flop. Rinse Repeat.
Hellmuth uses this strategy at the 100/200 UB games, it's a strategy best employed against better players.
It's a winning strategy that a person with downsyndrome can use, hellmuth is just in a standard downswing.
