Now that I think about it, it makes sense that betting between 1 and 2 thousand is the best. It's high enough to drown out your opponent's gains if the 10,000 loses, while still being a very small bet relative to 10,000.

The guy attempting to bet 10k can always only put in as much as all other players combined. You do not get 10k from him if you don't bet 10k yourself. Hence the only way to gain 100% profit is to bet 1.

So, after all the bets are made, if someone's bet is larger than the sum of the other bets, their bet gets reduced to the sum of the other bets?

Am I right in thinking that the loser's pot is split proportionately to how much each person bet?

omg that explains what Taunt was saying I'm sorry XD
