Re: P5\'s top donk-n-go player is going pro
[ QUOTE ]
[ QUOTE ] ok but A8s OTB with an early position limper fish is like the nuts [/ QUOTE ] No, it's actually not. I'd fold that as a fairly standard thing. Your equity at the start of a 10-handed SNG is 1/10th (obviously) However, if, on the first hand, you bust someone out and take their chips, your equity does not double. This essentially a function of the payout structure. Incidentally, the same thing happens in a MTT, but because the final table is so far away typically, it's not so pronounced. There's some mathematics on here somewhere which shows that you need around a 55:45 edge when flipping for stacks for it to be even neutral EV. While, of course, you're not flipping for stacks here, you are increasing the chance of a showdown by playing the hand. Thus, you need more than it to just be +cEV. I think I have a VPIP of around 5-7% for the first couple of levels in SNGs. This is not particularly unusual amongst winning players. [/ QUOTE ] You are decreasing your ROI by folding in +EV spots. Your chips don't decrease in value THAT much. |
