Default Re: Running it multiple times

It's standard in whatever cardroom allows it. If you win twice, you get 2/3rds of the pot. Reduced variance but doesn't change the odds(only very very slightly as they don't reshuffle)

It does not change the odds (EV) at all, whether they re-shuffle or not, provided of course that they decide beforehand whether to re-shuffle.

Uh this is wrong? Lets say nut flush draw vs. top pair on the flop decide to run it 3 times. Flush draw is 2 to 1 dog and hits his suit on the turn and river. No shuffle. He now has 2 less flush cards when they run it the 2nd and 3rd.

It varies on edge, sometimes people will flip their cards over say a pair with flush draw and you have a set. Well now you know that you have 1 less card that pairs the board. It's small edges but it's something you always consider

I don't understand your argument, but the fact is, the EV changes not one iota when you run it multiple times with no reshuffle. It's an easy theorem to prove.
