How much weight do you give to game factors other than the purely numerical ones? I ask because there's much more to poker than pot odds. Certainly, pot odds are an important consideration, but no less so than position, opponent tendencies and characteristics, and the number of opponents. All these factors, along with many others, skew the statistics. Later position allows to extract more value than you might first predict. Loose and passive opponent allow you to find value in a wider range of hands. Some hands play well against many players but poorly against only a few, and vice versa. And so on.
