Chips under EV and over EV directly affects to Final EV$
Lets take reg-reg-fish game.
Imagine that you in first 5 hands in 3max jam 88 and regs call you with AK.
You lost and earn 500*0.55 - 500*0.45 = 50 chipEV (+4$)
And you losing your opportunity to continue game vsFish.
In case if you win flip, you continue in HU vs fish.
In spins avg hands per game = 20 (19;23) depending on game style.
But lets take 20.
So you have 20-5 = 15 hands remaining vs fish.
Avg winrate vs fish in HU at least 4.5 chips per hand.
So your expectation is 15*4.5 = +67.5 chipEV (+7$)
If you constanly lose all flips so you losing this 7$ of EV everytime.
And on the other hand, if you win more often flips and go over EV you often stay in the game and get extra chips.
Real mathematics will be more difficult, but to convey a thought, I hope it became clear.
