starting stacks of 1k, 5/10 nl game.

ep raises with AA to 40, I reraise to 999, ep 3 bets all in, I call the 1 dollar more.

my ev on the 1 dollar call is -1(80%) + 1999(20%) = big +EV!!!!

therefore that EV must come from somehwere!! therefore KK is better than AA!!

So is this thread going to get 300 replies also, or does one need to have a cool colored name to have his bad point discussed ad nauseum?

Do you really need to ask that question? Of course there's a big difference when a 2+2 author presents flawed analysis and presents/defends it as factually correct, as opposed to some regular 2+2 member. The presumption from many will be that what the name in red states to be correct is in fact true. It is for this very reason that 2+2 holds other poker authors who post here to a higher standard.

Jeez, can't a guy be glib from time to time? Obviously I realize the rare Mason post is going to garner a lot more attention than any one of ours...

OK, maybe I was wrong and this thread will, in fact, also get 300 replies.

Re: KK is better than AA
 

Very very nice post IMHO, OP.

Re: KK is better than AA
 

Dont think you are a pioneer in poker theory Amobea. Similair ideas were developed few weeks ago in MTT forum ("purposely going to red zone to create +EV situations).

Best wishes !
