    Just wondering what people think of this....... on cash tables - what % of your winnings can you attribute to short stacks donking there chips off to you......?

    Playing on a cash table at the minute and i have been unbelievably card dead for 175 hands yet ive still doubled my buy in due to short stacks donking there chips to me.... This has happened a lot in the last week to the point where i target tables with people on a shortstack...

    Usually in a session, I get maybe quarter of my winnings from short stacks donking their chips to me, after they donk, they usually reload for minimum, lol.

    Shortstacks are great if you don't fall into the trap of playing a seriou -EV game against them because:

    (A) You want to get them off the table to make way for larger whales
    and
    (b) "sure they only have $x so I'll call"

    Shortstackers at lower levels rarely play a shortstacked game properly, they'll commit too many chips to a raise and then feel obliged to bluff at it when there AK misses.
