What everyone fails to realize is you have the better hand, dont we all aspire to the mantra "get all your chips in with the best hand"? If he has a bigger stack then yea, fold, but if you have him covered, esp if your avg if u lose, id take that every time.

You do realise that Stefanicov didn't know before hand what his opponent had, don't you? That's the crux of everyone elses arguement, that chances are you'd probably be behind here. And why would you not want to get all your chips in with the best hand if an opponent has more chips that you?

What im saying is that ace high vs any random hand is a favorite. Stef had a read he was loose and defends blinds, and when I have a read on someone as a loose player id risk him not having ace high beat if I still have a good stack after that. With a player who has a bigger stack than me, I wouldnt call in this situation because a-6 isnt a hand to get knocked out of a tournament on. Some may say that makes no sense, but if I have a shot at getting a comfy stack which will get me to a final table, I cant see why you wouldnt take it. Dont buy in for more than you can lose right? Well if stef wins this hand (as she did) then she is in great position to not only cash, but win the tournament. If you lose the hand and have an avg stack, then its very easy to tighten up and get your money back especially since you have average stack.
