I fail to see why this is amazing.

(bubble hand where small stack doubles up)

[Sponger15SB]

So you raise with 74 into a guy who is pot committed into calling?

With 74 it kind of sucks, but I don't think it's going to take that much better of a hand where you're probably better off gambling there than just giving the small stack 200 chips for free.

[lastchance]

Plus, this isn't 50/30/20. Plus, he's getting 2:1 against a random hand.

I'd forgotten about the payout structure, that's a good point.

I think he's getting something more like 5:3. So it's + chip EV if you're 37.5% or better against a random hand. Still pretty close with 74, but not terrible. And with 9 or T high it starts to look legitimately good.
