blanko: That's absolutely true. But a LOT of people get tilty or at least let the losses affect their game. I think most people underestimate the value of reduced variance.

I'm not saying shoving is a bad move, I just think there might be better situations to get your money in. I'm not sure that the "instashove, fist pump" are seeing that Villain is 1/3 to win if he's beat, and 91-99% to win with a made hand. The long term profit margin, if there is one, is pretty low.

villain has us crushed like ~10% of the time at most
