Default Re: The Freakonomics of Tournaments: A Preview (74s UTG at final table)

Very nice post and interesting allusion. My prediction is that this will spawn misapplications and misunderstandings on par with Gigabet theories and stop and go's.

What range do you think the 4 stacks you can't call ( I assume you don't want to call the button, but admit to not having done the math) push with? Less than 8% i assume given your break even calculation. I think the read on these four players is a huge part of this and i'll trust that you were spot on. Given the two and a half shortstacks, it would be difficult for most players to push a wide range unless they were more concerned with top 3 than moving up a couple spots.

Interestingly (or perhaps not) it seems as if the 90k stack would probably have the tighest reraising range.

Thanks again.
