Everyone seems to forget that sometimes they get their chips in as an underdog and suck out.

as betgo pointed out, he's 30% in a 3-way pot. with the antes in there, this is a very very slightly -chipEV play.

But both the initial raise and the call were +EV.

/edit well the raise probably was.

i meant that the end situation was slightly -chipEV ex post, i.e., once we see what the cards are. very debatable whether the intial raise was +EV.

On the bubble, I am raising into 3 short stacks any time. If either really short stack plays, it is generally slightly EV+. If the BB raises, I lose 1200. If the BB flat calls, I generally lose 1200, but maybe I will catch something or bluff him with the big stack and position. If everyone folds, I gain 850. I am going to gain 850 most of the time, since usually no one has KQ or AK or something to play with me.
