Why have your recent posts all used "BB" instead of dollar amounts?

It's not just my recent posts. I've always preferred seeing everything translated to BB.

While 2/4 and down is certainly small stakes, a 2/4 unknown will tend to give me a different impression than a .05/.10 unknown.

That's a reasonable position. You are welcome to make comments that are explicitly conditional on the stakes you specify. In fact, I think that's a good idea (for those who are familiar with the play at a variety of levels) whether someone posts the stakes or not.

On the other hand, the stakes alone do not specify the level of the game. The Foxwoods game with a $2 big blind is nothing like an online NL $200 game. The differences between sites and between times on the same site are not as large, but they are still significant.

This hand was from a NL $100 game, at a time when I would expect the game to be soft. However, the players at this table were much tougher than normal, perhaps because they had stacked the fish, who left.
