Either top pair or straight draw. There's enough money in the middle that I am pushing this and hoping rizzle comes along.

Hmmm... I'm pushing this and hoping rizzle folds, but that's just me.

[/ QUOTE ] Do you mean that, if the villian has AJ or T9, you would still prefer that he fold? Or do you mean that you are just hoping that your hand is good?

[/ QUOTE ]

Both, actually. But I was stressing the first point, really. I'd rather surrender some equity here for the sake of increasing my stack by about 50% without a showdown.

[/ QUOTE ] Oh man, are you going to force me to do the math? You have to know how wrong that is. Please just admit it, and don't make me break out the PokerStove.

Early in a tournament, I would rather surrender some equity than put my tournament life on the line. What is there to admit? I already said it was surrendering equity, don't get your panties in a bunch.

Edit: I admit this may be incorrect "mathematically," but I am merely stating what I would prefer happen, counterintuitve or not.
