Thanks Davey. reducing variance is pretty much what I figured they were doing. so say they agree to run the entire board twice and the pot is 100K. does it get split up into two 50K pots?

When they run it twice, do the pots get split into two 50K pots?? If not, then why would the dog ever want to run it twice??

[/ QUOTE ]

The underdog would want to run it more than once as it increases his chances of splitting. If you were a 3% to win you would pay to run it twice on the off chance that you got a split and saved all your cash.

400 posts and you don't understand this concept. Jesus.

He asked why the underdog would want to run it, not why the favorite would. Why wouldn't the underdog want to run it more than once? There would be no reason at all, which was what I pointed out.
