Re: Alter your play for donks - early game?
Any reaction to my (or anyone else's) other analysis?
Other question: when you say it's +EV are you doing it based on net chips (+cEV) or on its effect on your prize pool equity (+$EV)? I have a feeling your play loses you more than it wins you from a $EV perspective.
Lastly, this isn't necessarily directed towards you, but it's on the forum a lot...just because something is +EV doesn't mean it's the optimal play. You could be showing a +EV result with this play (though I suspect that this isn't the case if you have a substantial sample size and software to track it), but that doesn't mean you can't do better than that.
It's not correct to think "it's +EV, so I'll do it" and not think about other, more +EV options. If that's how you think, if you were forced to take 2 options, one with an EV of -$1 and one with an EV of -$5, it wouldn't matter since both are -EV. Likewise, finding a +EV answer doesn't make it correct simply because it's +EV.
