They still wouldn't be negligible because if you kept folding you'd be antied away.

lol. Not as far as I know.  Grin

What I mean is that to answer the question u have to know how the antis are going to affect you so you know how many times you can keep folding whilst you wait for the most favourable holdings possible.

Same here - unless the blinds were really really small in comparision to the chipstacsk.

To be honest, I don't think the scenerio is gonna crop up too often.  Grin

you could ante away over 300k or more in chips even with blinds of 1/2 waiting for Khkd v ks2d
so then a double up wouldn't even give you 50% of the chips
ie over 200k hands

i would take my chance with AA v anything

If the blinds are negligible though (ie. so ineffective they aren't worth considering), then you can wait for KK v K2.

I'm guessing in most scenarios though, you should take the aces and shove it in.  Grin

the blinds would need to be something like 1/2 with stacks of about 5mill 10 mill for this to be a profitable wait

i could do the maths but i am useless at proving the maths behind this so i will leave it to the uni grads'

Is that if waiting for KK v K2 or just any more favourable position than AA v 72?  Smiley
