I figured as much.

Just giving you a hard time.

Good players with short stacks are a pain.

Bad players with short stacks are a donation.

Holla.

I've alwasy felt 50BB was a really awkward stack size, but i'm just starting to really play nl ring. What are you reasons for playing with that stack?

Opponent fish was loose raising preflop and playing 50% of his hands. There was a lot of cold calling and some isolation going on. It makes it easier for me to just push my stack in with some lesser hands and get a call from him. If I felt there was a high chance to get a big payoff postflop from this guy, I would just top it off.

If the "only reason you're in a game" is because some moron has $1485 and you only buy $500, well, holla!
