In Response To: Thoughts of a jellyfish. (dc-ohio)

The real question is do you take into account that only the top 4 are paid, and with 20% of the chips in play you are likely to just fold your way there, or do you go with the odds and your read and make the call?

Unless the prize pool is life-changing, or there are non-monetary rewards (such as free/discounted entries into other events), then from a value standpoint just make the equity move (i.e. call).

What was the prize structure -- percentage of prizepool to 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th?
