If you pushed preflop on the first hand of the WSOP with Aces, you should want as many callers as possible.

It is not "logical" imo to think anyone can outplay enough players, in such a large field, that anyone can afford to throw away the pot odds overlay that they are getting, when they are at worst less than a 2:1 dog (if I remember my "Aces vs. 9 other hands" odds correctly).

Therefore, if you are not willing to get it all-in preflop, risking elimination, with a huge edge in equity.... you have no real chance in any big tournament.

If anyone wants to call this my opinion only, so be it.

I agree
