Sorry man. I think I confused the issue. When I said underdog I was referring to the original proposition bet os KK vs AA for your whole role.
Mathematically, you guys are correct of course. But all I was saying is that I wouldn't be able to risk my BR even if the payoff was over 6-1. |

The correct answer is totally different depending on your poker skills and the size of your bankroll.
But no matter how large your bankroll is, there is certainly some X where the gamble is worth taking. |

[ QUOTE ] The correct answer is 3. [/ QUOTE ] You have absolutely no comprehension of opportunity cost. [/ QUOTE ] Yeah, if the thought process of "it's a profitable bet so it must be right" then the correct answer would actually be anything over 2, i.e. 2.0000000001 would be a better answer than 3. |

A question to those who picked 3:
How many BBs is your bankroll? Picking 3 gives a RoR of 33%. If you are a 1BB/100 winner with a 15BB/100 SD, this corresponds to playing with a 124BBs. But, that calculation assumes you play until you go broke at that limit. Since this isnt actually the case, a 33% RoR corresponds to probably 90-100 BBs as a roll. EDIT: of course there is the difference that we KNOW this bet is +EV, yet we dont know you are a winning player. But, I still suspect that most of those who picked 3 arent at the appropriate limit. |
