If you're getting 2-1 odds, why wouldn't you call?

If you are willing to coinflip the first hand of an STT, why not just play roulette instead? Less rake.

I hope the thinking members of the audience can figure this one out for themselves.

Suppose you have a coinflip game where you win $10 when you win and lose $5 when you lose. After a hundred "games" how much money do you have ?

First hand is crazy land. How you choose to play this hand is up to you. For those opposed to the call, how do you play this hand ??

As for gambling early. It can be nice to get some of the total idiots chips before someone else does.

Also we lose half of our tournies in the long run anyhow. So if you are going to lose it is best to do it early.
