i read the article and it made alot of sense i have to say.
just one thing that i dont understand.
how come when talking about coin flip situation he only says earlt in the tourny.the argument and tha calculations that were made,seem to be good at any stage of the tourny and not just the earlt stages.

He only is talking about early in the tourney because that is the time when some people say you should pass up small edges because you can get bigger edges later. They think that with small blinds, they can increase their stack without risking all of their chips. Most people agree that when the blinds get higher, you have to take any edge you can get.
