As far as Brunson losing everything on a coin toss...

he's old enough for his children to be taking care of him :P

OT, DN probabaly plans on freezing out the other players. Not exactly what I would look forward to for a large even money bet.

Hellmuth and all his baggage may be a lot, but he isn't stupid.

This led me to wonder whether I'd be willing to risk 10% of my total liquid assets as a 55/45 favorite. Hard to say for sure when it's just theoretical, but I'm fairly certain that I'd take that bet. Maybe not for more than 30% though...

I believe that Doyle Brunson said in SS1 that he'd bet everything he owned on a coin flip if he got 2-1 odds.

I think it was 10-1

That's a tournament where you cant lose more than the buyin. There's no money pressure. It's totally different for playing heads-up for $500K where the loss would really hurt you.
