Which play is worse?

Can you do a simulation for seats instead of hands or players?

Let's say a regular $20-40 game went for a million years with no rake or tipping. And we had stats on everything. And instead of looking back to see how a certain hand scored, like AK, or how a certain player scored, like you or me, we looked instead at how each seat scored. We'd add up the button's score on each of the million hands. And the cutoff's. And on around for each seat. We'd end up with ten numbers, in dollars, that added up to zero.

Can you do a sim like that? And how close do you think the results would be to the real world?

What kind of sim do you want? Every player seeing every flop and playing as normal from there? Each player playing S&M type starting hands? Every player playing like a Commerce regular?

If you post specifics I'll run something and post it later.

FWIW, I would say that sims for unraised pots with each player having the same postflop profile are remarkably accurate for determining positional and starting hand values.
