Message: [QUOTE="fishfood, post: 592593, member: 22466"] :joyman: Actually it depends on how many players are left in the tourney. I generally try to bully the middle stacks and leave the shorties alone. The shorties are much more likely to call with sub par hands but the middle stacks are trying to advance in the money so they will more readily fold against a larger stack. I believe Harrington discusses this somewhere...it has been a long while since I read his book so maybe I will re read it and brush up. Trying to steal antes and blinds from dangerously low stacks is, I believe, negative EV since many of them will call with nearly any two cards(and most of the time it is correct for them to do so) but stealing blinds and antes from middle stacks that you have covered will yield profits in the long run.
