So, is there a problem with just computing the chip EV for tournaments? That's what you're describing, right?
I'm talking about using BB EV, not chips, so that we can normalize it.
I actually did a large sample like this and found that the BB +/- from expectation doesn't exactly correlate with the Equity +/- but it wasn't far off. That isn't surprising because we don't know how your luck will be distributed to small and large pots. What I'm trying to figure out is if this is biased by player decisions or if it is truly random and should approach expectation.
