Hmm I'm not so sure about all this blind analysis. It kinda seems like an accounting trick. I mean, you have to pay the blinds to play an orbit. It's table rent. They just happen to take it from you when you're in the blinds and credit you at that time with a small discount for entering. But wouldn't it be the same if they took out 1/4 blind from everybody's stack every hand as an ante and used that money for the 1.5 blind starting pot? Doesn't that amount to the same thing? And if they did it that way, would you still want to take every > -100 bb/100 play from the BB for example? Or would you just as well like every > -25 bb/100 play from any position? Or just concentrate on the profitable positions.
IDK this is confusing me. I don't see why we have to make up blind costs, which really are charged for the entire orbit, just when we're SB or BB. Granted that's when they give us the discount to enter but of course that's also the crappiest position at the table. Couldn't you just as easily try to 'make back table rent' from any other position?
I could see it if the discount to play compensated for the bad position but I doubt that it does.
