thanks for the maths TP, nice posts.

I was gonna say 6MAX tables, i would not like the risk of doing this in a full game. Which is why i was more inclined to go with Zys 95% of the time itll win, as with the maths i worked out of getting called 4.5% of the time, it could be profitable.

So we all know the maths isnt spot on untill someone does this, which wont happen, maybe if one of us wins the WSOP we can test it out or something.

How about ethics, is this idea against the idea of fair play, poker, and everything else?

Of course not. You are welcome to commit suicide at my table any time!

As for the math, that's the thing about math - See, it's just math! All you need to do are make a few assumptions, namely what hands will call you. After that, the math does itself.

For 6 max tables, the odds of someone behind you being dealt a monster are lower, of course (less players), but people are going to call you with more hands too (because there are less players). I think the EV from doing this at a full table, a 6 max table, or even a heads up table will work out to be about the same in the end. It's less likely that your opponent(s) will have a monster hand, but the fewer players at the table, the larger the range of hands that are going to call you.
