I'd say 75%+ (assuming I have very little of my stack invested), but this isthe
fallacy. If I call this hand, and the next hand when the next guy does thegoing
same, and the next, eventually it doesn't matter how far ahead I am. I'm
to be toast.chance,
Obviously, as a practical matter, sooner or later you have to take the
but I sure don't have to be happy about it, even if I'm 75% to win eachsingle
time. Thus why I said the "you want these calls" replies didn't make logical
sense.
I think what you are forgeting about is that even though you will
eventually lose one due to the percentages, if you win the first one, then
there is a significant change to the chip stacks. For example, you are
outchipped 15k to 10k. If you win the first all-in, now he has 5k and you
have 20k. If you then lose the next one, now he has 10k and you have 15k.
So you are still up 5k in chips even though you split the all-ins.
And if you don't want to call the first time with a 75% advantage, then I
don't know what to tell you.
