The problem is you are a good player and they are calling stations. I'm really happy for you getting to play a pot against these guys. No doubt you will make lots of money postflop. But it doesn't change the fact that you are not going to see that 21% share of the pots because you use your fold button and they don't. So unless some other factor is operating to make you PFR profitable, your 21% is going to shrink to 18% or whatever and your PFR will be a money-losing turkey.

I knew there was a sound reason I'm so wimpy preflop.

Look, obviously this concept can be taken too far. At some point our equity has to be high enough to compensate for the "problem" that we fold more than our opponents. Now all we have to do is figure out one catch-all formula for knowing where to draw the line.

Go to work math geeks. And make sure the formula takes into account that not all calling stations chase to an equal degree.
