If you can make money waltzing into a big game with a tiny stack, that's a problem with the game, not the player.

Isnt the problem with the structure of the game, and not the other players? I dont really understand why the minimum buy-in for a $2000 game isnt set atleast $1000.

I agree.

In limit poker isn't the minimum buy in something small too like 10big blinds?

Based on the replies in this thread it seems the majority of the respondents do not like small stack players in their game (I know I don't because they can shut out players whom I want in the pot with me post flop). So, if a player does not like it, and they are all about +EV, then it seems that this means it would be -EV for them. Therefore, if it is
-EV for them it must be +EV for someone else, no? I wish my bankroll was large enough to test this hypothesis at the 2000 game lol.

Counter point: Stu Unger.

Edit - also, that is a really big "if"

don't forget the rake - any player who isn't losing more than about 2PTBB/100 isn't +EV for the table whether they are rock or short stack player
