Wait a minute, lets say you take those + EV situations all day. Any PP, and any good ace. Any 2 wheelhouse cards. Most of the situations you get in to. You'll only be a 2-1 favorite. Sure you'll double up. But being a 2-1 favorite, means that you'll lose 1 hand out of every three. Since he's such an amazingly huge favorite, and has a monster stack size, you get taken right back down to zero once every 3 hands...

You still have to go on a lucky streak in order to take all his money, because when you win, you barely dent him. When he wins he stacks you, and takes all his money back.

If you tighten way up and wait or any PP, you're still usually only a 4-1 favorite. Meaning your 2 dollar buy in, STILL can't really threaten him when you're only going to double up 4 times before you lose your entire stack to him, and have to start over. 2, 4, 8, 16, stacked.

If he's on a lucky rush, fear it, and get away from it. Even Pro's fear, respect, and play the rush.
This advice means you should never play, because you are at best only ever a 4-1 favorite preflop. This reminds me of the saying, "scared money is dead money."
