The only bad thing that can happen is V folds, period. So we take the line that makes him folding least likely. The fact that you don't understand this basic concept says everything necessary. So, yes, you don't get it and you probably never will, so the conversation is pointless. Just like it was pointless for you to point out to me that calling is bad, after I said that in my initial post.
And the effective nuts is the nuts. There is no difference. That's why it's the effective nuts. And that's why it's the nuts.
