let's assume two allin hands with 50% equity in a headsup 100bb allin
with EV cashout ( (Pot size - rake - jackpot fee) x Equity)
hand 1: Cashout = (200 - 3) * 0.5 = 98.5 cashout = -1.5 bb
hand 2: Cashout = (200 - 3) * 0.5 = 98.5 cashout = -1.5bb
total win:
-3bb
total rake contributed: 6bb * 0.5 =
3bb
without Ev cashout
hand 1: (200 - 3) * 1 = +97
hand 2: (200 -3) * 0 = -100
total win:
-3bb
total rake contributed: 6bb * 0.5 =
3bb
Looks like there is no difference!
This is assuming that, since the rake is taken out of the pot before the cashout, the rake contribution also is based on that same amount, which sounds likely.
