Default Thanks !!!

<font color="red">Are you sure? As b approaches 0.5 from the right, Y approaches infinity. Isn't Y supposed to be &lt;=1 </font>

You got a point there. Back to HQ !

<font color="red"> When A has the ideal bluffing hand (ie. just a tiny fraction less than B's hand), his EV from bluffing (ie. standing) is Y*b </font>

No, it is Y*x ... We have to calculate the situation when A is in marginal bluffing-position.

<font color="red"> From drawing his EV is 1-b so the idea is to make these equivalent, ie Y*b = (1-b), or Y=(1-b)/b </font>

I somewhat aggree ... if we substitute Y*b with Y*x !?!

<font color="red"> Or am I missing something? </font>

Maybe not - maybe a little - but not much.

Thanks !!!
