FWIW, in most low buy-in live tournaments and many online tournaments, "small-ball" is a losing strategy. It only works when the average stack size is deep relative to the blinds, like in the WSOP or other big buy-in events.

I thought that Daniel's original discussion of small ball was as a tournament strategy, but I've been know to be wrong before.

im guessing this was a attempt as humor and you were not being serious? If you were being serious all I can say is....wow this would be kinda crazy to play like this in a cash game.
