Ok here we go...

First of all, before recommending a fold, I dare you to input this into SNGPT and find a range for your opponents where folding becomes correct as opposed to allin. Knowing such info during the game is v important, as its tough to figure out sometimes when playing so many games. In any case I look around the table and see the stack sizes and know immediately that folding is wrong.

So now that folding is wrong, is it best to just move allin or to make some normal raise? Im pretty convinced that a normal raise is definitely better than allin. Im prepared to fold against the stacks with 1400+, and its obvious that the smaller stacks have no FE against me, so allin and 525 are the same for them. The key is that there is very little chance of me getting "bluffed" by one of the large stacks, and thus Im happy folding if they move allin on me. Yes I may get a bit more than 2-1 on my money, but Ill almost surely be more than 2-1 underdog against those hands, and close to 3-1.

Folding is just wrong though.
