If you don't care, why bother to reply at all?

Because people constantly whine about clutter, then clutter up the forum with nonsense like this. The fact that it's a moderator posting this stuff is particularly worrisome.

The exact point of my post/poll was to avoid cluttering the wrong forum with hands. I find that my 8/16 posts get little response from SS. I looked at the SS forum, and it says something like "up to 6/12 or so," then looked at the posts here and they all looked to be 30/60 and up. Nonetheless, the 8/16 at CP is populated in some large part by higher limit players waiting for a table (Nemesis in the hand I posted at SS was waiting for 30/60, and the wait for 30/60 can be hours long at CP). I felt the folks here might give better advice for playing against this type of player, but wanted to "check first" before posting.

From what I hear of the CB 8/16 game, it definitely belongs in small stakes. If you happen to play a more interesting hand against a tougher player, then post it here.

I though mid/high was 15/30 and up.

8/16 live wouldnt be close to most 15/30 online games.

You'd get better responses in small stakes.

Exactly, and I think this should apply for all limits. Use your own judgement as to which forum to post in. Most of my 15/30 and 30/60 games are well suited for Ed Millers book so advice from the SS forum should suffice.

Unfortunately, many/most small stakes posters are A. Intimidated by 15/30->30/60 posts--therefore they are reluctant to post dissenting replies and B. Unfamiliar with general game conditions in mid stakes games--thus they are not well qualified to give advice where game conditions affect decisions.

Most online 30/60 posts seem to fit better on this forum.
