Re: ** WSOP ME, $10,000 NLHE, Day 6, Sun., July 15**

ok, these guys beat me to it. was just going to say that it's really just incomplete to say "all-in pre-flop with TT for 50BB".
here was the action:
Scott Freeman raised 325,000 from the small blind. John Armbrust raised to 1,000,000. Freeman shoved all in for 5,000,000. Armbrust called.
this could easily be a steal / re-steal situation, Freeman sees a lot of chips in the pot, and knows that he'll only get called by a very small range of hands, and he is in big trouble against even less hands. the play here really isn't that bad.
it's much more complicated than "all-in pre flop w/ TT for 50bb"

I'm a PLO cash player and only play NLHE in online tourneys, so I don't usually get a chance to put 50BB in pre-flop. So, a question to the NLHE regulars who play 50BB+ regularly ... Is the AKo call, putting in about 40BB to win 100BB or 1.5 to 1, standard?
Test run: it's neutral cEV vs AA-TT,AK.
Not sure about the effect of the escalating prize pool on $EV though.
