Hi guys! I've been playing omaha for a while at micro stakes, BB - .10 and am quite a fish but trying to learn and pick up my game. So i installed the HM2 and at the moment Im trying to figure out if im just running really bad or am I loosing because of bad play.

So, after playing 15k hands at BB=.10cents I have a loss of 226$. The $EV diff for the 15k hands is+10$. Now I am wondering does that $EV diff stat mean that if the statistics held up that I would be up 10$ instead of being down for $226? If so is such a variance normal?

Also wondering is the $EV diff only calculated for AI hands and thus the hands that actually make the showdown would not be covered by this stat?

Thanks for any help.

+10$ means you ran ten dollars below expectation. So you should have only lost 21.6 buyins.

Yes. Also if you get 95% of the money in on the flop as a massive favourite, then villain hits his two outer on the turn and the remaining 5% of the money goes in, this will show you getting all of the money in bad. All in EV is also only one form of luck, there are others which can't be so easily measured, like how frequently you cooler your opponents when you have the nuts.
