Anything upto 60/40 is a coin toss to me, you are basically taking the skill out of the game and going racing, losing at 60/40 cant be considered a bad beat so its a coin toss.

And the next thing
AMRN:
I smile at players who call their entire stack on a coin flip early on in a tourney whilst still deep stacked. I"m always happy to shove my chips in knowing that if called I will be in a coin flip situiation, but only if I"m the raiser.... that way I have the edge over the odds..... the opponent may fold to the raise, and if he calls, I may win the race - that means I have two chances of winning the hand, where the caller only has one chance and that chance is only 50/50.
Cyntaf:
are you shoving with a pair or the A-K or both, early on 2 ways of winning. Also 2 ways of losing. Don"t think I"m shoving in deep stack early doors, not even with AA.
Anyway that"s tourney survival, back to coin toss, i"d say more 40-60 ;D ;D
TopPair2Pair:
oh im shoving AA, i"ll even put my house keys in the pot! the AA shove is a genius piece of work, it looks so wrong... oh it cant be... yeah it is... your QQ is dominated now.....bummer... take yer car keys off the keyring and bugger off.
oh look a Q on the river. "umm can I keep the furniture?" is normally my next comment.
Umm anyway... alot of 60/40er"s then!
EDIT: any1 happy with say 45/55 and consider this not a flip?

I think if most people (myself included) are saying 60/40s are coinflips then 45/55s are even more so......
...aren"t they??
