Default Re: high stakes limit

I'm really puzzled by some of the discussion here. People are using the pokerstove results as an argument for auto-fold. Is pot odds a concept that's been completely forgotten.

Forgetting metagame considerations, forgetting this is HU, with all it's associated factors, let's look at this from a pure math perspective:

Assuming you know nothing about your opponent, and let's assume that you're willing to narrow his range a little based on pre-flop action to the degree that you're willing to say that your hand post-flop has only a 33% chance of winning. Well, given the 3 big bets already in the pot, you'd be getting slightly better than 2-1 return to simply call down.
