Flips are won by the large stack 50% of the time (give or take the usual statistical margins). The thing to consider here is that the big stack is much more likely to be calling for a race, than a small stack. So they happen more often. When the big stack wins (stack gravity as I call it), you think the thing is rigged. When the bic stack loses, you nod in satisfaction, and forget it.

In poker, it really is wise to avoid flips where possible - if you love them so much - play the Russian Roulette sit-n-gos.

When considering any percentage calculation we must always remember what the great Terry Pratchett said.

 Million to one shots come in nine times out of ten.

In that case some so-and-so is doing very well at the lottery at my expense.

With flips, 50% of the time, you lose all of the time.

This fact only applies to online poker where as in live poker it is 50% over time. because online poker is fixed.
