I can offer a formulaic approach and I am also working on a counter-counter strategy as well.<br /><br />@ Donkshove<br /><br />Pardon the misunderstanding, but I am not giving up shortstacking as the money is just too good and I still enjoy it. Rather, I am looking to change the direction of the blog because I prefer to be viewed as a professional poker player who chooses to short stack, rather than a short stacker who chooses to play poker.Lorin Yellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00217221028351659344noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1166680589294972243.post-19352540030231957672010-02-06T04:15:10.221-05:002010-02-06T04:15:10.221-05:00I've been a regular reader of your blog for a ...I've been a regular reader of your blog for a while now. I gotta say I really enjoy reading your posts. It's refreshing to see someone who can approach the game creatively and write about it as well.<br /><br />I'd love to hear your thoughts on all the topics you mentioned. It's a bit unfortunate that you're giving up the shortstack game, but it's probably a good time to change things up. It's all about constantly finding new edges anyway, right?<br /><br />Keep on crushing those games. I'm sure you'll be fine in that area for a long time to come.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1166680589294972243.post-80069103261030002332010-02-05T13:57:11.518-05:002010-02-05T13:57:11.518-05:00Just based on context clues, I'm thinking you ...Just based on context clues, I'm thinking you and I share an opinion of how to exploit rush play.

I pretty much intend on coming out with 2 per week, as I have them all completely planned and just need to put them to paper.<br /><br />@ SS Prodigy<br /><br />Actually, what I have to gain is the knowledge of having helped other players, and therefore I fully intend to give them away for free. Unlike short stacking, giving away knowledge of Rush Poker will not directly hurt me in any way, whereas with shortstacking, having just another winning one sitting in all my 2/4 and 3/6 6-max games not only takes away my profits, but also has the ability to take some of my money as well. Also, too many short stackers did have the effect of invoking a major intervention by Full Tilt, which has almost certainly caused a gigantic spillover into other sites by now. Being that you can not use a HUD at the Cake network means that my trade is safe there at the moment (and that a strictly by-the-numbers approach won't work and you actually need to know how to play). Though I had really wanted to give away the secrets of SSing, I did not feel that it would be in my longterm interest. <br /><br />Part of what separates Rush Poker from other types of games is that you will rarely be in conflict with the same player twice which allows for a certain type of exploitation that is very easy to teach and garners instant profits.Lorin Yellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00217221028351659344noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1166680589294972243.post-12526699088794806482010-01-30T11:01:05.552-05:002010-01-30T11:01:05.552-05:00Of the six you listed, #3, 4 and 5 appeal to me mo...Of the six you listed, #3, 4 and 5 appeal to me most.Memphis MOJOhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12653631347560307425noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1166680589294972243.post-40270100507235798302010-01-30T04:58:18.917-05:002010-01-30T04:58:18.917-05:00Like... the fact that you made a living from short...Like... the fact that you made a living from short stacking and the often thoughtful posts.

Of course, you have nothing to gain by giving the secrets away for free. However..can you just give us a few hints?<br /><br />Regarding shortstacking-I firmly believe than any clever shortstacker who has spend the time and effort coming up with tricky ranges and tricky plays that work at midstakes cash games will be successful at anything he puts his mind to, not just in poker, but in life. If shortstacking were banned on Stars we would find a way, no doubt.<br /><br />As far as making a living off of this game for 5 years, that is truly impressive. <br /><br />I've enjoyed this blog ever since I discovered it and will continue to read it as long as it exists!It'sAllAboutCalorieshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11665328161598571258noreply@blogger.com
