Re: ($27) Raise size question
When are chips ever superflous? In the hands of a good player those chips can be used to win more chips and so on and so on and so on. ICM takes a static picture where as the situation is actualy dynamic especialy on poker stars where there is a lot more post flop play.
Chips and Stacks do have a value in and of themselves say an accumulation equity/ability that only expresses itself when the chips are played, the better the player the higher this AE will be. This translates into pure equity in a way that can not be quantified by ICM. This value will increase with stack size. However it is limited by the fact that 1st only pays X%.
This post started of much better and hard hitting but I accidently deleted it coz Im a bit drunk. I tried re typing it but seemed to have missed something out/forgoten something that detracts greatly form the massive insight that this post was initialy. Shame.
