i just mean that if you say whitelime is too strong of an opponent and willingly take a spot that you can positively identify as -EV, then you are just giving up. the reason you're a dog against him is because he manipulates you into making -EV decisions, so why would you knowingly take a situation with the worst of it?

even if whitelime's future edge was completely insurmountable, i don't see how it would be big enough to justify going in here... he's only getting 1.66-1 on his money if my math is correct, which seems like it would be giving up way too much immediate equity, no?

edit: where is all this laughter directed at

the laughter is directed at you, in case you were wondering.

here's a very basic explanation. let's say HEK thinks whitelime wins 2/3 games 60% of the time, but thinks that if he (HEK) can win the first game he can win one of the next to 60% of the time. You see how it would then be correct for HEK to gamble when he likely has at least 40ish% equity, right?
