BB defend NLCASH

I said it before and Ill say it again, just because it is profitable for villain to raise ATC preflop doesnt mean it is profitable on a whole.

I think it is important to remember that just because a sb play is +ev doesn't necessarily mean that the bb is making a mistake.

At the beginning there are 1,5 bb in the pot and both are dealt 2 random cards. So without the position factor everybody has an equity of 50% of that 1,5bb = 0.75bb.
But bb has 1bb in there, so he should loose 0.25b while sb should win 0.25.
And that is even without factoring position in.

Most BB plays might be -ev and correct for that reason.

Also somebody in this forum posted a winrate over 75k hands from the bb and he is defending only about 25% or so.

So it seems that the preflop edge doesnt mean alot for your winrate. It all comes down how well you play postflop.
