Default Re: You have AA every hand . . . when do you quit?

you guys r a bunch of gamblers...seriously I'd go maybe 3 hands, 4 max if I felt really lucky. I don't think I've ever won with Aces more than 3 times in a row... Don't you know how often Aces get cracked? You really think there gonna win 8 times in a row...lol

Ok. For all of the guys who say, "Until one of us is broke," would your answer changed if Daniel bought in for say, $2,000,000 instead of $125,000?

Off the top of my head, you're going to win more than 10% of the time...so you win the $125K 1 time and lose $500 9 times. EV= +$120,500 for taking it to the end...if you only did it 4 times you would win about a third of the time and so your you would win $8,000 one time and lose $500 twice....EV= +$7,000

Are you going to pass up $113,500 just like that?

Then it starts to get interesting, at some point getting 80% (or whatever those aces have) chance to double up is
-U, but I think this point is higher than $2 mill for me personally.

I am going to say a max of 16 hands without AA losing no more than every once every 8 times.
