Re: How much of an edge woud the best players fold early?
First hand of WSOP main event...You get dealt AA on the button, guy UTG goes all in...everyone folds to you.
If you are a top poker player, or even if you feel you are better then everyone at your table why would you call this? You are risking your entire tournment life on one hand where the UTG wahoo could hit his set or whatever...If you feel you could out play everyone and double up by the end of the day anyway why risk it all on one hand? It makes no sense to me if you are going to double up throughout the day anyway when you have the nuts and other players are drawing almost dead or near dead....
If you are a marginal player, or if you are just as good or worse as everyone at the table then it is a instant call...
