The Rock is in play

The "rock" I was thinking of was this. Whoever wins a pot, posts the blinds in the next hand. Therefore, you could theoretically fold every hand pre-flop except AA and never lose a dollar (because you would never post a blind). Also, stealing blinds is useless since you would just end up posting those blinds on the very next hand.

It's in one of Mason's essay books. He'd chew me out if I reproduced it on the site.

1, 2 or 3? I'll have to get a copy, I'm intrigued. I can only get the first one locally, I was planning on getting the other two next trip to Vegas.

It's in the second. The winner of any hand posts the big blind and the small blind is posted to the left of the dealer as normal. The BB can be tied up in a bunch and even replaced by a rock because it may as well just sit in the pot. It ends up being a limit game with only a small blind posted.

With the blinds being dropped to 33% of today's typical structure, should someone play 33% of their usual number of hands?
