The point of this in poker is that if you are playing games with an 'appropriate' bankroll, then your 'CV' is a good way in theory of comparing different games. This is a refinement of the flawed notion of maximizing EV.

Be more clear. What do you mean by a good way of comparing different games? It depends how you define good right? If by good you mean most profitable, then CV isn't the best obviously (EV is the most important factor).

If by best you mean the game that makes you most likely be positive, then CV is important.

And what's so flawed about maximizing EV? Maximizing EV makes you maximize your long term bottom line... isn't that what matters in the long run?
