@AsianReaper,

Tobi's situation vs Konan is completely different than the one against Minato. There is no way Tobi could have predicted that Konan could use Paper God Person, because he had no knowledge of it. Everything else Konan threw at him it was well within his ability to handle. So even if your right and Tobi underestimated Konan, it's still not the same as the Minato fight.

VS Minato, Tobi was foolish, there's no way around this. He saw the kunai coming at him, at just the right speed so Minato could teleport it before Tobi hits and by that time, the kunai would be in just the right position above his back, so he could hit Tobi. However Tobi, didn't put 2 and 2 together.

It wasn't a valid strategy, you say it accomplished immobilized Minato and stopped him from counterattacking. However, if that's all it does there was no point to it. Tobi's goal wasn't to immobilize Minato for a second, but to capture him with Kamui. Tobi would have never have been able to use the chain to assist in capturing Minato, with Kamui, because Minato would have just teleported away. Minato had a kunai already out at a different location.

Most importantly Tobi could have ended the battle towards the beginning of the battle, but didn't...just because.
