Re: Annie Duke... And Won Millions
You gain TEV from busting someone, when you are near or in the money. Therefore, if you have chips to burn, you might take a little of the worst of it, against a smaller stack, because they are more dangerous to you, than their chip sizes suggest.
This is seperate, from making fold equity plays (raising with trash) and then calling desperate shortstacks AI re-raises, based on pot odds.
The general idea is, the short stack loses more real $, when busting out, than you lose when the suck out fails to materialise. Shaving 3% of a huge stack is not going to significantly alter your chances is it?
