Default Re: Response to Sklansky\'s article \"Chips Changing Value in Tournament

"Regardless, we're not going to respond because, uhh ... hmm ... we're too busy"

I already said I would respond to a specific question regarding my contention. That contention being that if you are a winning player with a certain stack sizes or higher, such that you are more likely to double up than go broke from that point on, than your EV in a tournament, once you reach that stack size, does not increase proportionally, in any kind of normal tournament structure including winner take all. If Snyder says that's wrong he must be wrong.

Notice however that I said nothing about strategy. Other than you should not risk a large amount of chips, above this stack size, with a tiny positive expectation (unless you are trying to increase hourly rate rather than EV).
