No ones mentioned the fact that PA might think he can outplay Jamie. I think it's uncertain how confident PA was that Jamie had a big hand. I think it's an incorrect assumption made a few times in this thread that PA def thought Jamie had a big hand. Makes the analysis much different.

This deserves more attention. After all, if PA is drawing for the huge implied odds against Jamie's super strong hand, then why would he be so quick to have it run 2-3 times? The EV is only positive if he can stack Jamie, rather than "settling" for $125K.

PA was uncertain how strong Gold's hand was.
