Default Re: Giving up pot odds to preserve FE

Problem is, A9 is the sort of hand that's going to be dominated by a bigger ace and a high pair.

Even if it is a pair 88-22, now you are flipping and if you lose, you lose all your FE, tourny is over unless you pick up a hand.

I'd say, 70% you are dominated, 15% coin flip, 10% you have the better ace, and 5% vs. KQ or something.

The point is, everyone understands that you have the pot odds to call. That is not the dispute, the question is, weighing obvious pot odds vs. FE for the remainder of the tourny.

I say FE is more important here.
