Default Re: The Wotmog theory

Who's to say that when you double your stack to 20K on the first hand your $EV isn't 80K+? Maybe you've reduced the value of your opponent's chips more than 40K as a whole. Until somebody shows me the exact cEV/$EV curve over an large MTT with varying chips stacks, varying payout structures, etc. I'm going to go with with Shane (Shaniac) on this one based on empirical results that when I double up early I tend to finish ITM and finish deep at least 2x more often than if I don't double-up early.
