However, this raises a question. Is there a time when the second order effect, that is the amount of chips you can win from putting chips you win now into +EV situations, changes what would normally be a slightly -EV situation, into a positive one. In other words, can the chips you give yourself a chance to win later in effect make-up for the chips you lose on average calling now.

I think this pretty well sums up the thoughts Gigabet made on the A9o VS. his KJo hand.

I think the players ability to use these chips in the future in a +EV manner VS. just being caught back up to by the field at some point, is the key to pushing the edges early.
