I don't know...part of being a player is being able to do the math relative to the stack and blinds. Seems pretty easy to just do it in your head. IMHO. [img]/images/graemlins/cool.gif[/img]

I don't think the OP was suggesting this to simplify the math. I'm pretty sure he means this will help detatch from the monetary concept of what's at stake. ie: moving upto 5/10 and losing $500 is harder to choke down than losing "50 BB's".

Agreed. But the point is to prevent you from seeing the numbers so that you don't realize that you just lost X hundred dollars (could be more than you're used to when you're at a new limit).
