Suppose one is playing heads up NL holdem.
Goes allin every single hand. Over the course of 100 hands
70% of the time he is a 60% (60-40) favorite.
30% of the time he is a 40% (40-60) underdof.
What is the expected hourly rate if the avarage pot size is $100? TIA

If he goes all-in and loses can he rebuy?

If you are just talking about playing 100 hands where he is a 70% fav 60 times and a 30% fav 40 times with $100 pots (assuming he contributes $50 each pot) then his expected return is (60*.7+40*.3)*$100 - $50*100= $400/hour

I believe your EV is +$8 per hand. Over 100 hands that would be +$800. Your hourly rate depends on your hands per hour.

Sorry, that's wrong. It's $4 and $400, since you are each putting $50 into the pot.
