Default Re: Proposition bet during a hand... what would you do?

By any chance were you playing against Sklansky? Did he then ask you what the maximum amount you would give him and fold would be and why?

Something along those lines was going to be part two of my questioning:

1) Pretend the EV of calling was the same as the EV of taking the offer. Do you go for the tilt value of sucking out or just keep the money now and try to run it back up in the great game you are sitting in? Granted, in the long run it does not matter...but there is no long run. Just this hand right now.

2) If we alter the pot slightly and you realize that calling is a slightly better play than taking the offer... do you still take it or go the high road and try to double it up playing? What if it was your only buy-in?
