Well that's awesome of him. Very Greenstein-like!

The net or the gross?

I'm convinced these people have so much online MTT experience this is the way they are used to playing. In the late stages of online MTT you generally see people all in preflop with any decent pair or AK etc (and it makes sense due to the blinds).

These people wouldn't have gone all in preflop with 66 sitting on 15K chips when the blinds were 200/400 (M of 25) yet they are doing it now. This isn't new of course, the last several days have seen people getting most if not all of their chips in preflop when they are under no blind pressure at all.

Also, a big resteal has a lot of folding equity. These resteal hands don't get reported when they take the pot.

In other words, the all-in play works everytime except the last time.

I worked here. He got called by AK, was ahead, and won the hand.

A lot of times you pick up the pot. If you get called, you hope he has AK/AQ. If you do the math on the play, it is cEV+ against a loose raiser.

This is a pretty standard play. I wouldn't push with 66 against a tight early position raiser.

Einhorn bets 400k on the flop. Thorsson raises to 1.3M, Berryman goes all-in for 2.32M. Einhorn calls all-in for 930k more. Thorsson calls.

Wait, no... that's how I'd roll. Also, after the hookers and blow, I'd keep the rest.

Doesn't the EV of survival at this point outweigh the small EV worth of chips this play stands to win?
