Default Re: Daniel Negreneau Verifies His Agreement With Me

"Perhaps in a dry pot with nothing committed he would fold, but in a pot where he had 15% or more of his chips already in play he would call even if the estimated EV where the same."

You don't know what you are talking about. Obviously if he had 15% of his chips in the pot, to call 85% more means he is getting at least 115-85 odds. So he would call with some hands that he would fold getting even money. But there is no way he would call early in a tournament if his stack is reasonable and his positive EV is small (in this case say a 47% shot). If Raymer, Harrington, Phillips, Chen, or Mattros do it, they are either confused or think they have little playing edge against their opponents.

As to Daniel saying what he thinks I want to hear, you should know that he gave permission for me to write what he said. Not something he would do if he didn't mean it.
