Cash Game Partial Cash-Out (a.k.a. Rebuying from the Deep Stack Player) (1 Viewer)

[Machine]

As long as we all get opinions, here’s mine. That’s the kind of bullshit made up by somebody who’s struggling to find a counterpoint. But it is indeed bullshit. If we were that worried about noobs, we could also offer them a 33% rebate on every pot they lose. But nobody is doing that either, because it’s bullshit.

Thanks for your opinion!

I wasn't struggling to find a counterpoint, it wasn't my original argument, also I did add it wasn't my baby.

I would hate to be thought of as a close-minded poker bigot, so I try to keep an open mind.

I hope you don't take offense to that, I'm trying to ruffle your feathers / tease you sarcastically, as you, at least on the forums come across as vehemently opposed to change, and a bit frugal.

I do agree, you are correct, in most cases it is bullshit.

House rules should never allow going south.

If it's truly a unique situation, then at a minimum have 100% buy-in from the table before allowing it.

All the cash that comes on to the table stays on the table. There should be equal opportunity for each chip to be won or lost as Nike's blessing waxes and wanes through the night's play.

Most of my players wear Reeboks, but if the shoe fits, ya know....

As a noob playing organized poker with real rules, I find all the viewpoints and the back-n-forth worth every chip you offer. I personally won’t allow it at my house and it will definitely make my rules list.

I’m 100% against ratholing, but there are 2 circumstances where I’ve seen it happen. In both scenarios, all players should/did agree to allow it.

-end of the night (only a few hands left). A player with a monster stack (covers everyone by 4x) will sell rebuys from his/her stack. The money should still stay on the table, but sometimes ratholing might be OK if there’s no risk the monster stack will have to dip into the cash before it’s time to cash out.

-Bank runs out of chips. This happened on the HCL stream with content creators (Mr. Beast, etc.), when a female player had all the chips. Hustler Casino had no more $5K chips available, so she was selling chips from her stack in exchange for IOUs. She later busted, but had already “banked” several buy-ins. Was not a fan of the ratholing, but when the bank was out of chips, there weren’t a lot of great options.

Ill agree with that. You want to keep the stream going and you've got a bunch of nine-figure fish on your show? I dont care, grab some apples, each one represents 1 million. Lol

The most important thing may be to get a consensus and roll with it. In my game, if I could I would require cash to stay on table in chip or cash form. However, some of the players who aren't as good need the security of ratholing here and there. They mostly only do it late in the session. Some of them would quit the game if they couldn't, and I'm hard up for replacement players. So with one group that I play with, we tolerate this. Any time I sell chips 100% of the cash stays with my stack on the table all night.

1. Yes or can buy from big stack as long as the amount whether chips or cash stays on the table.
2. Convert cash to chips is the way to go OR cash has to stay on the table and be in play. But much easier to convert to chips if you have enough chips.

I agree

Totally inappropriate and against the basic rules of poker IMHO. You certainly couldn’t do it in a casino.
