You are quite right. As I usually do with these posts, I reconstruct
the details from the exact numbers early (I'd noted down that night the
tight player's preflop raise amount, and the fact he bet out only an even
$20 on the flop). I remember distinctly Josh wanting to raise the pot
size, but I did the math wrong during reconstruction last night. I've
corrected the post. The key misremembering in the original post (now
corrected) was that I couldn't have had $350 in front of me. It must have
been around $280, not $350. I know for sure that I was able to go all-in,
because it factored heavily into my decision. It makes sense; I had
rebought a half an hour before and hadn't won any significant pots since
then.
Thanks again to Steven for error checking my post; perhaps I should
send them to you first for proofing. :)
BTW, I'd love to hear your thoughts on the hand itself, now that the
details are more correct. :)
