A really good example of this can be seen at merge...... (Carbon, Bonitas, Bet bet, PDC, whatever one you happen to be playing).... when you compare the two (or even three) different games... Standard 2$STT, 10$STT, and FunStep1,2,or3).
With the Funsteps - They are almost always shove fests - everybody and their brother are drawing for the ace and 23os ends up taking 4 out on the first hand. That doesn't stop the rest... you may end up with two or three in funstep3 who are actually playing cards... even then, you've got the bluffer who shoves everything including his finger up his @#$% (god I hate those guys).
Similar situation in the 1 and 2$ games where you can get a feel for the guy who calls damn near everything and it does get easy to call his @$$ down to the wire.
It gets a little more difficulty in the 5 and ten dollar stt's because folks simply tighten up there - however you still get the one or two guys who hit bunches and loosen up enuff so that they swamp themselves shoving their j8suited.
...though the differences in those games (funsteps compared to twenty five dollar stt's for example), are extreme and you can't make the same decision in that higher dollar game that you would in the lower game in the same situation (calling the shovel-head).
just an opinion and I prolly wandered away from the subject a little.....
