Hypothetical question: Lets saying I've got QQ and I know my opponent has AK. Its early in a tournament. I know that my opponent will call whatever I raise, but won't fold or re-raise under any circumstances. I also know I'm above average among the players in the tournament, but not necessarily one of the very best. Do I want all my chips in because this is about the best I can hoep for? Or might I want to bet a smaller amount (lets say 1/3 of my chips or 1/2 my chips) and save the rest for a similar situation to reduce variance by 'diversifying' across several hands? Are situations this favorable just so infrequent that I absolutely need to maximize each one?
