now we'll take two hypothetical cash game hands. in both hands, hero gets all the money in as a 60-40 favorite.

"All the money" is exactly $100 in both cases. In one case, that $100 represents 100 big blinds. In the other case, that $100 represents 10 big blinds. But how many blinds are represented is irrelevant, because *all the money* is in.

$100 is in, in both cases. Not $10 in one and $100 in other.
