Any retard can see that winning 1/2 the dead money in the pot twice is not as good as winning all of the dead money in the pot plus what your opponent bet once. Buzz you're 100% right about that. But that is completely and utterly irrelevant to how you should play the hand. . Your net gain on average is exactly the same for both cases in the above example. It seems as though everyone on 2+2 has tried telling you this, but you still don't believe it. In the example you cited above, your EV is exactly the same with 2 split outs as 1 scoop out, so you should play them exactly the same way. All this nonsense about what fraction of a scoop out a low out is worth is just wrong, misleading, and bad advice.
