Message: [QUOTE="Dorkus Malorkus, post: 473997, member: 6020"] Pretty much. I for one can't imagine myself ever playing a rebuy and thinking during the rebuy period "I'm raising to find out where I am" or "I'm raising hoping to take down the pot now", heh. I guess the same is true of cash games to an extent. Just as every chip we gain has less value than the last in a tournament, every chip we lose has more value than the last. Thus of course, some situations can arise where a certain move is +chip EV but -$EV (especially in highly specialised situations like many SNG bubbles), and a lot of the time this is where raising 'for information' or especially 'hoping to take the pot down' comes from. In a ring game of course chip EV and $EV are one and the same and you're usually all relatively deepstacked (certainly compared to deep in an MTT or SNG), so the above doesn't apply - chip EV = $EV = $$$.
