It was an old theory of Mason Malmuth and David Sklansky to go all-in on every hand...you see there is more to poker then cards and odds...the mind is as much if not more a part of the game than the cards are...one has to be willing to call those all-ins.
How many times have you been at a table where a player goes all-in for a number of hands in a row and that player also has a gigantic bank...now everyone else at the table knows that the player is bluffing but is afraid to call him...even with good cards, because they know that a luck factor is also involved and do not want to get caught in it and get railed...they all wait for someone else to beat him.
It also happened in a WSOP with STU UNGER...everyone knew that he was bluffing...but no one was willing to call him for his 5 all-ins in a row when they all knew that he was bluffing!
I just won a re-buy tournament...when I had over 250,000 chips, the player next closest to me had 98,000 chips...I did not want to get in a hand, because they were all going all-in and the luck factor was on my mind, so I was very selective to position and pre-play, not to mention the in pot players banks as well as those in front of me, as to whether I played the hand at all!

The fact is, gimme got his money in while behind in 6 of his 14 hands (and there are 3 hands where we don't know whether he was ahead or not). In the 5 hands where he got his money in ahead, he won - every single one of them. Odds dictate he should have only won 3 of those. Of the hands where he got his money in behind, he won two times, and tied once - on average, he will win only 1.7 times out of 6. There were only 3 cases where gimme shoved and no one called, and two of them were heads up.
Gimme relied on luck, and nothing more, to win this SnG. Anyone who tries to deny that is a moron.

OK mars...and what was gimme trying to prove...he was trying to prove the luck factor...because he just lost over $7,000 at one seating.
Yes mars and the luck factor works in more than one way...you have the luck of the cards and you have opponents that are afraid of the luck of the cards....even when they have good cards.

Of those hands that called gimme, only AQ can be considered even close to a premium, and guess what: HE TRIPLED UP TO 4500, AT 10/20 BLINDS, THAT HAND!!
If anything, this hand history has shown that you can't use advanced poker theory at the lower levels, as they will call you with anything - so all of your talk about raising with junk hands, playing the player, not your cards - gimme has just shown that your theory does not apply!

LOL...I am convinced that you and Fink are from another planet. You both are totally against what all good poker pro's say...the two of you are just in love with goofy glasses Raymer and must bow to him daily, but I doubt if he even agrees with the Finkmars methodology! | | |

If you go all in every hand, it is the same as playing a slot machine. Where is the skill, pride, or basic knowledge of the game? If an all in fest is all you are after, and let the luck fall where it may, poker should not be your game of choice. Go buy a pack of scratch tickets. | | |

Alright Crapshoot, how about this:
The two of us play a best-of-5 heads up series. $5 buy in. You MUST push all in every hand, whereas I can pick and choose when I want to push.
If you win the series, I'll shut up. If I win, you shut up.

I have no idea what you guys are even trying to prove in this thread... that you can win a 10-man sng by going all in every hand? Ummm... is there anyone out there who thinks it's impossible? Hope you didn't spend too much time on the experiment... Quote: |

If it was every hand then I'm willing to bet they don't use it anymore... did they really have to experiment long to figure out people would fold to an all in with 10 7? Quote: |

So you ended up winning a tournament by going AGAINST all the things you've been preaching lately? Quote: |
