Re: attitude on coinflips
Chips don't have equal value since the most equity you can have in an SNG is 50%. In a cash game, you would take any (in theory, I'm sure there are exceptions) +cEV gamble. Taking these gambles in an SNG comes with an underlay (often significant). If you flip on the 1st hand (with 10% equity at the start), you only move up to 18.44% equity when you win. So every flip costs you .78% of the prize pool. So no, taking flips will not show a profit.
