Below EXPECTATION, not EV. PokerTracker cannot measure EV. EV can be calculated on any action, the EV of a call the EV of a fold, the EV of a raise or bet - but to calculate EV it requires the knowledge of your opponent's range. Using today's technology, a tracker cannot determine an opponent's range because the tracker cannot predict the opponent's range; it can only perform calculations from the results. A tracker can however calculate equity of hand vs hand all-in situations, and then multiply the equity by the size of the pot to determine the winnings that the Hero is Expected to win. But the Hero's actual winnings for a hand will never equal expectation unless the hero's equity is 50/50 (in a heads up hand). Example: Hero has 90% equity in a $5K pot, his expectation is therefore $4,500. But in reality the Hero will win $5,000 90% of the time, or lose the pot 10% of the time - the hero will never actually win $4,500.

What does all this mean? You can run above or below EXPECTATION, but it is not a measurement of running hot or cold, and it is also not a measurement of playing good or bad - it is only a measurement of expectation and nothing more than that. No worries, this is a very common misconception... we see it and attempt to correct this misconception for our users on a nearly daily basis.

Now back to the TC vs DK HUNL match, we are closely watching these two outstanding players battle it out with in such a professional way with such grace, in our minds both players are winners regardless of the turnout!

that was so random

U were buried before the first hand was dealt.

Surely if you are offering 5:1 you will take the other side if I offer you 8:1?

This is almost as bad as my bet on him. a true american feel player. I mean cmon tc theres not a chance that you should be attempting to exploit someone like donger this much

calm your tits alobar, thats the king you are talking to

damn, my ninja edit wasnt fast enough

Yeah , heydanmerr. You should def coach TC.

That last one seems terrible from TC...wtf?

sorry i dont do coaching

R.I.P. TC and his bettors...

you guys are probably missing some information here. Not saying its good/bad or anything in between, but I dont think TC calls there specifically to exploit DK, and might not ever make that call outside the confines of this challenge.

Its pretty unfortunate, in every big pot DK just has it and TC being behind a good bit is probably overextending slightly

Exploiting is exactly the only thing he is attempting to do there. I promise you. Ask poker snowie if you need to call there without a club. Poker snowie ses no

so youre willing to just ignore the current state of the challenge as a reason why he'd potentially make a call like this?

Seems pretty ambitious

The fact that he didn't win the hand doesn't mean it was a bad exploit per se.

The current stat of the challenge has nothing to do with it. The side bet is almost negligible.

Regardless of whether the call is good or not, the difference between winning and losing that pot is unlikely to change the chance he wins the challenge by > 1-2%, and with 15k on the side, I dont think the $300ish difference matters too much.

interesting, WCGRider says it probably changed his chances of winning by at least 1-2% - a fairly costly mistake indeed.

session 11 done, gg.
