Re: Pocket 6\'s with M=4
Something everyone has to consider.
What happens if we fold?
80-%90% of the time we will be dealt a hand that we fold for the next 3 hands.
We cost ourselves 1.5xBB (assuming blinds dont go up before we get there).
We are going to have to double up within the next 9 hands. By folding, we cost ourselves 3xBB if we do eventually double up.
IMO, taking a shot (even if it is CEV neutral or slightly negative) is still our most profitable line. You have to take a stand when doubling your chips still means something.
Dont misinterpret my advice and think that I love this spot, and I think there is anything more than a 50/50 chance that we survive. Am I happy about pushing here? absolutely not. Do I think that it will earn me the most money in the long run? yes.
