Re: Hypothetical Heads Up Gambling Situation
chainsaw,
I'm not sure you 100% understood. On the tenth hand you must play whatever hand you are dealt. Therefore, if you fold nine times, you are forced into a "coin flip" situation -- whoever wins the hand after five cards are dealt on the table. But along the way, you can decide "Hey, I want to wait a few hands because even though Q8o might be favorite against a random hand, I will probably get a better hand soon." The dilema is that the longer you wait for a good hand, the wider your calling range has to be. You might fold K3 on the first hand waiting for an ace, but eventually you have to call with K3 because thats favorite over when you can expect to get on the next two or three hands. You might go on a bad run -- 27, 39, T4 or something. OR you could get your AT. Gambool.
I'll add a twist when I get more initial responses.
