So if you want to wait for a "better" spot to double up, it has to be significantly better, because if you double up here, you'll have more chips later.

i don't understand why this is such a hard concept for people to grasp. taking a double up now doesn't disallow me to take (bigger?) advantage of the everpresent 'double up in the future with a greater edge'. It reduces that chance somewhat (if i lose i'm out) but you can't simply factor the all of the risk and none of the reward.

such a simple, yet misunderstood concept that so many people don't get. nice post.
