    Why would rags call you? That might happen in Step1 or the big freerolls but that shouldn't be happening in the beginning of a private tourney. People that go all in at the start of the tourney are idiots. Even AK is not that far ahead of two random cards.

    I've never been one to tell people how to play poker (unless they come to me for advice).

    I'd prefer to sit at a table full of "idiots" as you call them any day. Having a skill advantage over your opponents is never a bad thing.

    No. A pro doesn't go into a tournament when blinds are less than 1% of their stack and risk it all on a coin flip. That would actually be negating the skill advantage that they have.

    I believe one of the Harrington books he does the math and explains why it is such a negative ev play.
