If your stack is deep you can take more flops as the blinds are relatively cheap to your overall stack...while this certainly varies per player and style, when do you consider yourself "deep stacked"...100BB, etc.?

i would say more than 80BB is pretty deep stacked. If blinds are 300/600 and you have 48000 you have an intimidating stack no matter what.

As soon as you're getting set-mining odds in a 3-bet pot, I'd say you're pretty deep. So 150bb's or more I'd say.

After playing nothing but 200bb's deep for a month, I much prefer either being 100bb's deep or 300+. 200bb's deep is just an awkward stack size where you don't have to have the nuts to stack off, but people can still set-mine & suited connector you in 3-bet pots. Such a weird & awkward stack size. And so much bluffing becomes possible when stacks are 200+bb's deep, since stacking off with 1 pair hands is a fast ticket to broke.
