Default Re: Stars $5r final table.

I thought it was a good deal too. I really didnt understand the negativity against the deal. Am I missing something that clearly shows this was a bad deal? Sure it seemed 2 of the players were too 'eager' to get a deal. I think he could have gotten them to give some back, but overall I think it was fair.

There are basically two concepts:

1) Exit plays a lot of tournies and makes a lot of money doing it; these other guys don't, so Exit's stack is worth more than it would be in an average player's hand.

I think that's actually secondary to this:

2) Refusing a deal pisses people off and makes them scared of you. A scared, pissed poker player is a really bad poker player.

Exit was very nice, but many players on this board get pretty mean around deal-time, and you can't really blame them because it's pretty +EV.
