Re: The flip side of dominating the bubble
Right.. but if paying 50th and 10th are the same.. that must mean the leaps at the final table (especially in the final 3) are very steep.. so you should have no real care about going out on the bubble.

If you take this to an extreme, like a sat structure payout where everyone wins the same amount, not folding aces is terrible.

Right.. but if you invent an uber-sat.. where 50th to 10th get a place in the stars rebuy... 9th gets a $215 entry to the $500k on stars, all the way up to first that gets an entry into the WPT main event.. you can see that you really dont give a monkeys about coming 50th--10th.. but you really want to get to the FT.. this is where the Chip value discrepancies are less distinct.
If the payout is uniformly flat from 50th to 1st.. you are correct that survival is more important.. but if they are flat from 50th to 10th..and then steep from thereon in.. it stands to reason that you should be taking any Chip edge however small, to get the chips... bubble or no bubble.
