So, last night I played the Stars $11R...
I had two or three 2+2 players at my table pretty much for the entire first hour.
Is ultra-lag (actively seeking coinflips or even 60/40 dog situations) to try and build a monster stack going into the second hour really the +EV play? I've seen a lot of players dump a lot of money on rebuys yielding a crazy bad $/chip cost.
Presumably, there is value in having a larger than average chip stack going into the second hour. So, for that value, it would be fair to say that spending more to get it would be +EV. However, I wonder where the cut off is.
If I can all but guarantee that I can go into the second hour with 5000 chips for a cost of, say, $50 (0.01/chip), would it be worth it to spend an average of *more* than 0.01/chip to get a larger stack? If so, how much more? 0.011? 0.015? 0.02?
