Has anyone won with Miller Short Stack?

[Gallopin Gael]

good to hear.

I guess the next question would be, what kind of win rate is everyone having?

[Rudbaeck]

I got around 3PTBB/100, with a standard deviation somewhere in the 15-17PTBB/100 range. (Which is amazing, as it looks just like good-great limit stats.) I don't have that PT database here, so I am shooting numbers from memory, but it should be fairly close.

[Recliner]

Yes, but if you played with a full stack, you should be able to reach at least double that number.

[Gallopin Gael]

Yeah, but then he'd have to think and actually "play" poker [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

I tried it, ran at about 4-5PTBB over 5k hands, got very bored and went back to playing limit.

Yeah, it does feel like playing poker while comatose. Regardless...

I can't 16 table with a deep stack. [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img] Heck, I can't even 8-table with a deep stack, so for me it'd be a loss.

To be perfectly honest I am hard pressed to 4-table with a deep stack. Which means don't play all that much cash game NL, as I make a significantly better hourly wage playing limit, due to it being easier to multitable without starting to do really, really stupid things.

And yes, as others have pointed out, playing SSS is about the most boring exercise ever devised by man.

"Has anyone won with Miller Short Stack?"


I read that Ed Miller has.

[Gallopin Gael]

And on a more serious note, Ed relayed the story in an earlier thread that when Bill Robertie read the book he "immediately called Dan Harrington to ask if the short stack system actually works". Dan said, "Works? That's the strategy I used my first six months playing no-limit."

But what does Mr. Harrington know. It's not like he's ever won anything. [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

This thread has me interested. I thought I played the system pretty well, but my stats pale in comparison to the ones posted. Can we get a little better sample size to see the success of this system?

Here are my numbers, and I would appreciate it if others posted their's as well. I wonder if I am doing something differently than the rest of you.

$25NL Party, $1.24/100, $15.44 SD/100, (more than 12-tabling) 268,483 hands.

My winning confidence is 100%, and currently, with a $400 BR, I have a 1.57% ROR.
