Has anyone won with Miller Short Stack?

[GeoC]

I've almost 25K hands (3) tables @ a time. $50 NL.
$1.50/100 EV. $25/100 SD. My sample size is quite small compared to yours. I stray sometimes a little, which could account for my small win.

[MicroBob]

NL25 is .10/.25 blinds right?

So you're at 5BB/100 I think which looks pretty good to me.. (unless p-tracker does the NL BB thing differently which I think they might...I haven't played much NL).

[Gallopin Gael]

I thought PT's BB is Big Bets, not Big Blinds.

PTBB = 2xBig Blind if I recall correctly.

I could be wrong.

[Rudbaeck]

GG is correct, so SuitedSixes is at just under 2.5BB/100.

I don't have the database around, but I was at 3BB/100 and a SD somewhere around 16BB/100 over something like 40-50k hands at the 400-600 games on Party.

[MicroBob]

Yeah...I thought it was done that way but didn't remember.

2.5BB/100 doesn't seem too far off from the 3BB/100 that others have reported.

Just hit a couple of lucky big-blind monsters in there for big pots and that can pretty easily explain the small difference.

I am sure this has been covered other places, but the search function . . . you know: PT has the same BB size for Party $25 and $50 NL.

The biggest adjustment I have decided to make is to buy in for enough that it is profitable for me to play pocket pairs for set value against a raise.

Ok i used the wonderful search engine on here and not finding it. Could someone give me a brief explanation and or link please to waht Miller's Short Stack is.

It's in his book "Getting Started in Hold Em" which is mainly a beginners book but has a cool section about starting off in No Limit and playing with a short stack. Because of stack size and pot odds you almost can't lose long term with the system.

It's pretty cheap ($12.21) right now at amazon.

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

not true, do you see why?

I will let others elaborate.
