Everyone is missing the point. When looking at the better hand you should be thinking about rate of change of EV. That's why AQ is better here, its EV improves with time as opposed to JJ who's EV/sec decreases. Mason is clearly thinking on the next level, so to speak.

I think there is a quote from Richard Nixon which is appropriate here, something about inflation.

Please elaborate.

I am elaborate.

As proved elsewhere in this thread.

EV (JJ) when AQs folds = $55
EV (JJ) when AQs calls = $40
EV (AQs) when AQs folds = $0
EV (AQs) when AQs calls = $15

Therefore, given that it takes x seconds to turn a playing card over.

Rate of change of EV (JJ) = (40-55)/x = -15/x $/s
Rate of change of EV (AQs) = (15-0)/x = 15/x $/s

15 > -15
Therefore AQs > JJ.
