Harrington likes the PVS!!
 

In case nobody's noticed, the PVS is my new favorite play. So I have to be careful to do it correctly, rather than look for every opportunity to do it.

I was reading HOH while eating breakfast just now, and came across the problem on p292. It basically goes, "Two limpers, you have AJ in SB." I thought to myself, "Man if the blinds were bigger, I'd definitely PVS this." Then he says, "In a B&M game, those limps might mean strength, but in an online tourney, assume they're donks. You're entitled to make a play, raise it up and try to take the pot there."

Interesting, he is advocating doing this when the blinds are just 10/20.

For the last time,

a PVS is a push into several limpers with TRASH CARDS. Not AJo!

I'm about to do the same. Are you eating lucky charms by chance? I think lucky charms is -$EV but Captain Crunch is +$EV. Not that I even eat cereal anymore.

I understand what you are saying the meaning is but what does it stand for? Push Versus Sucking?

Same idea though. Put in a raise to try to pick up the pot. It's just with AJo you don't dread seeing a flop.
