Default Re: MATH: 45 extra chips to start 800-chip tourney adds >5% to ROI

Now, someone tell me where the flaw is in the following double-up first hand strategy....


1600 stack vs 8 800 stacks...

.1844 is your new ev


18.44*1.265=23.3266
23.3266/11=2.1206 or 212% roi!!

now the games you don't double up first hand, you have -100% roi...

and the games where they all fold to your first-hand push, you will be at 20%, so still better than 15% you started out with if you fold hand one...

and if u wield a big stick for more than 26.5% skill advantage, your roi increases even more...not to mention $/hour implications and the increase in RB...
