HighwayStar 8 Posted November 7, 2008 Share Posted November 7, 2008 I remember this as an excellent post, some of the concepts are not what I apply myself and possibly slightly old but it is generally A+Rereading, I'm especially interested in this If I do find myself short-stacked at the final table, I find myself stop-and-going like a madman. I've found it to be an incredibly effective strategy for rebuilding my stack if I get down to the 10kish range. That doesn't mean I become reckless or start targetting the wrong stacks - 10k is still very respectable and you are one double up away from being in serious contention again.I really need to stop and go more than I do- esp in the spot he mentions here - it's way more effective than I realised.I may write a guide on multitabling 180 mans these days if I get bored one morning. I do play quite a lot of the ****ers and they are the greatest Link to post Share on other sites

CardWarfare 4 Posted January 2, 2009 Share Posted January 2, 2009 I browsed this post a while back, but didn't have money on Stars. I recently started playing these and did not have much success, so I reviewed this post to get some pointers.I played 4 of these tonight, busted out early in 2, am still in with a good stack in the 2nd hour, and was poised to make a deep run in a 3rd before a tough beat with QQ vs JJ on a 9 high board.One slight note since this was posted:The blind levels once antes start are slightly different. It's no longer 100/200 and then 100/200/25. It's now 125/250/25, and then 150/300/25.Not sure if this would change anything strategically, but I did notice the difference Link to post Share on other sites
