Stupid Question



Posted Sun Apr 02, 2006 7:35 pm GMT by tutubird
Lets just say these environments are perfect.
You are in a full 25 NL Texas hold em table and the only hand you play are Pocket aces and you will always go all in preflop and only one person will call you with any hand and he/she will always have you covered . Lets say everytime a blind passes, you always rebuy the blind.

The chances of getting pocket aces are 220 to 1.
Every orbit will cost you .35 cents. ( Big blind .25 cents and Small blind .10 cents. )

So that means in the long run about every 22 orbits, you will get pocket aces.

So you will lose about $7.70 in blinds ( .35 cents per orbit x 22 orbits ) before you get pocket aces.

Correct me if im wrong but Pocket aces has a 85% advantage against a random hand.

And since you always rebuy your blind you will always have $25.00. So woulden't that mean in the long run you will win if you play this way in these conditions?

P.S I understand these environments are radical but im just curious.

Based on your scenario yes you would come out ahead over a large hand sampling. In the real world, like the others have said, it wouldn't work.

notoriusjt2-try it and let me know how it works out

Again, I was just curious if it would work in that scenario. I never said that that is a winning style.

I guess its sort of like communism

Come on people

"In theory, if X, Y, and Z were always true, wouldn't B mean C?"

"LOL N00B X Y AND Z ARENT TRUE LOL"

Tutu wasn't concerned with whether or not his premises were correct. The question was: IF these premises are true, is my conclusion accurate?

It's like if you go to a Christian message board, and in a debate about whether or not masturbation is a sin based on biblical interpretation, you say "lol god is fake hes in ur MIND man" It's petty and moot, because you're trying to 'debate' by completely stepping outside the very framework that the debate takes place in.

That's one complicated post Snoogins. Razz

I'm not sure if you've ever actually posted at a Christian forum, but I have/do and some of them are plain nuts.
