Message: [QUOTE="MicheleW, post: 333091, member: 4138"] If you only have enough chips for about 6 blinds, you are probably nearing "short stacked". Therefore, you must take chances and not let anyone steal your blinds if you can. So, if you are getting blinded out each round - next time someone raises to steal, go all-in. You have to make a move sometime so why not now? If you get called and you win - great; if you lose - its better to go out in a blaze of glory than a whimper. Also, you can't wait for that perfect hand to steal a blind - you have to watch the betting and your position. If no one bets before you - bet a large raise to steal the blinds yourself. If someone calls it -- re-raise and go all-in if you are short stacked. Again - blaze of glory - no whimpering. I've been caught myself and after being blinded out to around 2400 chips and a 2000 blind - it didn't feel good so I decided to be the aggressor instead of the meek one from now on. [/QUOTE]
