What should a Nit payment be? (2 Viewers)

[Tonystark137]

Assume 8 handed. Standard nit game.

Also can you believe we're have this discussion for a 5c/10c game.

Progressive or standard?

Standard

Part of it depends on the denominations in play. If it’s $1/2 for example I would do $5.
If it’s $0.25/0.50 I would probably do $2.

This is exactly my thinking.

5/10/25p we do £1, although we don't play it often

5/10p I'd do 50p

At 5c/10c? Probably 50c. Higher stakes probably 2.5~4bb (e.g. $1 at 10c/25c, $5 at 1/2)

This is what I suggestes but I guess 35bb or 17.5% of a starting stack is too much for people who don't allow doubt straddles

$20. Nit game only works if the penalty makes it worth widening your range

At 5c/10c??

I like 3-4BB progressive and 10BB standard.

 

[joeyshin]

5c/10c? $5 lol

 

[grandmeme]

I remember the first time we put on the progressive game on with 10BB per button. We ended up getting 27 buttons for the game and so the loser had to pay out $540 in addition to being stacked 7 times (he was min buying after the 2nd reload). Needless to say we dropped down the BB ante for the progressive lol

To be fair we also had side games and button game going on as well. Not the smartest idea

I can see that, the 72 game is probably better for nits (ironically) because the cost is shared.

If your a nit in position of some who is always double stadding wouldn't you want that in theory? More dead money...

 

[allforcharity]

Your entire stack.

Fun fact about this question:

Who is the bigger Nit:

The one who folds every hand until he has to pay each player after nitgame has ended and therefore capping his loss to a handable amount?

Or the absolutely like nuts playing people that are loosing a truckload of money during the nitgame just to get rid of the nitbutton?

Or the one that's arguing that the payment should be 1BB... And can be paid from money off the table (I don't understand this either)
