You have to consider NL in a way entirely different from the super-mathematical world of limit, and you're approach to the problem is irrelevant...sorry.

This is something of a pet peeve of mine.
Even though it is often of a dubious level of practicality, breaking hands into mathematical terms is essentially THE way to do so, limit or no. This notion of mathematical analysis being 'pointless' because there are many variables in terms of randomness, player's tendencies, actions on later streets, physical tells, etc. is completely bogus. These things are intensely important, and probably (though I don't feel like arguing about it] MUCH more important to your bottom line than 'the maths': for example, the ability to narrow an opponent's hand range to a more specific set of hands is probably going to mean a lot more profit than the ability to more quickly run through the relevant equity calculations on that range. That doesn't mean that the math is irrelevant.
Anyway, with that aside, I'm book-marking this post, because it is awesome. Not for the typical reasons, though. I will not elaborate.
