Default Re: Summary of Where Profits Come From

You are right with your assumtion.
Thats also why quads vs. full houses are usually -EV for both.

Suppose a NL game.
One has JJ and the other has 88.

You move all-in on the 8J8 flop.

No doubt, none of them will fold to an all-in.
So sometimes you have the JJ and sometimes the 88.
Both EVs you have added equal 0. So due to rake, it's -EV for both, since they would not play it differently ever.
