Regarding ante tables, I think that winnings there should be adjusted by the initial pot size, i.e. the net winnings in every hand should be multiplied by 1.5 and then divided by the size of the initial preflop pot in bb's, e.g. multiplied by 1.5/2.7=5/9 at a full 6-max ante table. Ask me to write a PT4 stat for that if necessary, it's very easy.
I don't understand why people are so opposed to the inclusion of Zoom - though it allows for a bit more hands an hour, the field is tougher there, isn't it? Or are the bettors counting on that YaAaRnY simply won't get enough action at normal tables?

Lol, what? The difference between the AIEV and actual winnings depends on the RNG only, never on any player's strategy.
It's harder to luckbox past the 100 AIEV BI mark accidentally than past the actual 100 BI, hence, from the bettors' viewpoint, picking AIEV as the criterion will increase their chances; but it won't alter the strategy - it will still consist in making plays that net the biggest real EV.
However, YaAaRnY apparently believes that his true EV is more than 100 BI and hence will prefer the AIEV as the criterion even if the odds are the same, to prevent losing the bet because of a downswing. All in all, using the AIEV spices the action up as it makes both sides more confident of their victory
