I have been seeing a lot of this lately, players with minimal BB's remaining and making a play that effectively puts them all in but leaving a chip or two in there stack. I understand the thought of seeing a flop and mucking to keep your tournament life alive, it just seems like a -EV play to me. Anyone else notice this happening a ton more lately?
Are you not giving away the weakness of your hand in an attempt to keep your tournament life alive? (Or maybe you are trying to induce a call due because your opponent may be thinking this)?
Are you really shoving the majority of your stack with the idea of potentially folding flop or to a re-raise with 1 or 1/2 a BB behind?
Can someone help me understand the value in this play?
