It will eventually boil down to that good players will always run under ev ecause they will have the best hand most of the time and therefore cant run above ev.

In other words: nits and good players are destined to run under ev.
I wanted to ask this in a thread but i consider you the new authority on this particular subject-)

Ofcourse one would suspect to run at ev at some point but...
I am just hoping to get some solid insight from a very good player.
I also never run above ev so i got me wondering...do people actually sometimes run above ev?-)
I mean...if one man runs under ev...the other must run above ev right?

to be honest...ive never seen a good player running above ev?


Owh...and i dont try to rationalize your ridicilous graph or anything.
All im saying is that good players are destined to run under ev i guess?

i definitley agree with this, pretty much most solid nitty good regs will most likely run either under ev or just at about at even ev. i think the laggy players tend to run much higher above ev than the normal players,this is what i've seen in plo.your playing style also influences your ev.i have about 35k hands at 50max plo which has me winning like 2k above ev and winning like 9bb/100. this is maybe a small sample in plo. but you dun't need ev to determine if you are a winner in your own game. moral of the story is the nits will always run lower than expected and dun't let the ev graphs affect your game.

Seems very valid indeed.

If 2 players go allin AA vs. KK for 100 dollar stacks.
If AA wins he will be over ev for 40 bucks or so right ? (80% of 200) 160

I am really not good at this tbh but wouldnt the underev thing be more brutal than the over ev thing.
Meaning it will go down faster than it would go up ?
Maybe everything will even out eventually...in that case his graph is even beyond comprehension.-)

Congratulations for being great at poker and not killing yourself and/or letting your run-bad affect your play. Quite admirable I must say.

A break will probably do you good though, and let's hope you run better next year. Good luck!

yea the EV thing is obvious.

good players will ALWAYS ALWAYS ALWAYS run under EV. getting it good guarantees you will you run under EV, because if you lose AA to KK, omg bad beat but u got it in good so u a good player.

if u win AA vs. kk, well, u shud have won so even EV there.

The EV winrates are pretty sick, so that makes me think that OP might have run much better in the "other luck factors".

All-in EV is one thing, but if you get dealt 10x AA in a row that doesn't change anything to your All-in EV. Yet... You're extremely lucky to have gotten those cards!

Also: say you have QQ, flop comes AQ6, half of the money goes in on the flop, turn... another Q. All the money goes in on the turn and opponent shows AA. All-in EV doesn't show your lucky, yet again... You were extremely lucky.



All-in EV is just one side of the "luck" in poker, if someone has such a high EV winrate I kinda think you got some of that back in the cards you were dealt. Luck evens out in the long run, but it can even out between the other factors of luck, so not showing in graphs.


That's doesn't take away that this graph is extremely sick though and would probably make me go crazy.

what is going on, aa winning against kk isnt even EV. a good player is not more likely to run below EV.
