There are very few polite ways to tell you how much your idea sucks.

Obviously, it'd better more +EV to sit at your comp and fold everything but AA and then push AA. So your strategy clearly isn't optimal.

It's much harder to prove that your strategy is far from optimal, but it is.

Say your in a STT (10 players, everyone starts with 1,000) and you got some premium hands early and you boost your stack to 4k. There are 6 players left, should you just post and fold until you make 3rd place? I'm just brainstorming here so don't slam me.

Thanks

That is an overstatement but I was just asking a question.

You should try this, in the name of science. Since you'll need an adequate sample, I'd suggest "playing" 500 games with this strategy.

Report back with results, and good luck.

OK so it sucks, now what? It was just a question, dumb or not, I got my answer to it and that is that. It costs nothing to ask but it could if you try stuff out in real life when someone already knows it doesn't work. Of course someone might have already tried this in real life and found out the hard way. Again, this is why I asked the so called dumb question. I'm sure I will ask other dumb questions and if can get the answers to them I will be getting the do's and don'ts (mostly don'ts of poker) which will keep me out of trouble. This post was a +EV for myself, it's all good.

Thanks

So WE have to read your moronic crap so that you can get +EV because you are too lazy to read other people's posts?

Nice attitude.
