Like I know that should make sense to me but what allows you to do this with a 100bb instead of 200bb? Don't you have the same implied odds with 76s vs AKo with a 100bb as you do with a 200bb?

because ur gonna be committed quicker with 100bbs and gonna have less room to draw
AK and AA/KK type hands play best with a small SPR, stack to pot ratio, that means they want a big preflop pot relative to remaining stacks, and less post flop decisions to make because they're committed soon.
with drawing hands u dont want to be committed soon cus ull get owned.

also other people are generally bad at playing deep. they dont know that TP and other similiar hands are not hands to stack with 200 deep (not saying its ok 100 deep) so theyll be making mistakes for more money lots of times

Let's not forget Belgo's EV graph:

Brilliant

 

[Falian]

Ahh... so lets you float pots with draws because your not relying on pot odds as much as you would with 100bb?

Well, you can still rely on pot odds, but you have more room to make a slightly incorrect call (based on pot odds alone) because of the higher implied odds.

So you should be set mining like its 49 in San Fransisco?

IMHO playing deep is the pokery-est poker of all poker.

edit: ^^^^^Just ask Richy up there!

yeah you're pretty much getting odds to set mine in any situation when your deep

OMG, Richy...do you not read anything in this thread?

also other people are generally bad at playing deep. they dont know that TP and other similiar hands are not hands to stack with 200 deep (not saying its ok 100 deep) so theyll be making mistakes for more money lots of times

How the hell do you put 300bbs on one pair, villain could easily have T6 there. Congrats on the successful whale hunt.

 

[jdeliverer]

Yeah pretty much. You should be set mining to larger raises, etc.

 

[SeanyJ]

I can't believe I almost folded a set in HU. This guy hadn't gotten out of line yet and he's never shown down anything but value hands. The only reason I didn't fold is because he would always be 3betting aces or tens preflop. I honestly thought I was going to see JK of hearts.

But you're right, i'm significantly above EV lifetime.
