"You can think of it this way... most will say you should try to conserve in the early going. I agree with this partially, but obviously what it all comes down to is trying to make the money. By pushing 99 there, I open myself up to about a coinflip situation to double up. Those times that I do double up, I will have a 90% chance of making the money. So, 50% (chance of doubling up) * 90% (chance of making the money if I do double up) = 45%. This situation alone gives me a 45% chance of making the money. 45% is a better ITM than most if not all other players can hope to achieve. You can see how just one hand makes the difference. Not many would play the hand the way I did but it usually pays off. Does that make more sense? "
