So if you are honestly getting a lot of value out of 2 and 3, that's one thing, but if those are secondary reasons and the real reason is 1, better that you learn to be more patient and stop playing bvb.

Used to rarely chop live back when Stars, Tilt, Absolute/UB was legal but I stopped started always chopping when taking into account how terreble my BB/100 was BvB online. Still do not chop when there is significant rake reduction such as 5 handed or less though.
However, found 2 benefits of NOT chopping when I used to rarely chop.
1). Can significantly tilt fish, nit, TAG, or LAGTAG.
2). Generally, live players are terrible BvB and in turn, your BB/100 BvB should be higher than a typical LHE game online.
For those that still do not chop BvB: In a rhetorical world where you can get your BB/100 live filtered for BvB, what would you want your BB/100 to be at to consider NOT chopping live?
