    Default Berating shortstackers

    Is it ok to tell them to GTFO? I mean they can really destroy the game in certain positions when I'm deep vs other regs or fish. Mainly it prevents me from limping a lot of hands from EP/MP like small pairs and SCs when a short-stacker is behind.

    not saying I always limp them, and also it's completely standard imo (esp. on tables where you never face a raise)

    (forgot to mention it's full ring I was talking about)

    I think telling shortstackers that they are gay should be mandatory at all tables.
    For Free Money, Rakeback and some 6x Ongame bonuses, I recommend PokerSource.

    I recommend Cardrunners for superb poker coaching. It was honestly the single biggest improvement in my game signing up there! Sign-up fee might seem steep, but it pays itself back within weeks.

    They are fair game for constant abuse, slowrolling and a complete lack of class when you suck out with A9s vs their AA because you were pot commited against there gay fucking stack.
    Best Current Ongame Deal.
    Make sure to join Cash is King program for extra cashback as you clear the bonus.

    I never berate them. I just try to get them allin and stack them as quick as possible.

    Its probably a leak. Whatev.
    Lots of good rakeback options at http://www.rakeguard.com/?raf=KRE8R

    KRE8R probably has about seventy college funds in his NL5 roll.

    short stackers suck serious balls, i f**kin hate them. you raise AQ they go all in for 1 dollar more you have to call o they have jj and win you raise JJ they go all in with kk,

    You raise AK they go all in and some other person behind folds tough but you lay it down,

    you raise a SC they go all in.

    It ruins the game so in short give them as much abuse as possible we all fcking hate them

    How about looking at the stack sizes of the players behind before making a raise with suited connectors?

    And you're folding AK to a shortstacker's 18BB shove?
