But certainly Danny played it correctly. Danny has the immortal
straight in that he can't be beat by a higher one,
No he didn't, but he probably doesn't think Farha has AK.
and whether Sammy
has a set or a flush draw, he's 32% - to $35% to hit one of them, so
Danny's correct in basically putting everything he owns in the pot,
then going out and borrowing some more money, putting that in the pot,
and then selling a kidney and putting that money in the pot as well.
If you don't want to risk everything here, when would you?
That would be an idiotic thing to do, and you obviously do not understand
how the utility of money is non-linear if you would do the same.
By the time Sammy figures out Danny has a made hand, he's looking at
putting in 80 to win 156 or so. Not quite correct odds, but probably
good enough for Sammy as there was maybe 0.001% chance Danny was
bluffing.
Nothing wrong with Sammy's call after the fact, especially if he can get
Danny to run it twice.
Personally, I wouldn't do it for 80K in real money, but the same play
in my regular NL game.....who knows.
