Re: Mathematical explanation of having advantage with big stack
quick question, i read some of the argumnet for the small stack against a big stack, ie 200 v. 20,000. In NLHE the best you can hope for preflop is 80% v. 20% correct? 4 to 1 favorite. two pocket pairs facing off. if the short stack gets all his money in preflop with the best of it everytime he'll still lose his stack by the 5th race. at that point he'll have $3200 dollars. my point, or question is the big stack can afford to keep gambling against this guy with almost anything until they get lucky. thats a pretty big advantage to basically not have to think critically against a player simply because you can out bankroll him even if he outplays you severely.
