No. You get it in with 80% equity. You win 90% of the times. You have a positive number. That's what soah was talking about.

I'm + by a lot from my EV. I'm definitely running pretty hot, but I think i'm more running hot by hitting flops than by sucking out, so I don't know. In any case, those calculators are completely worthless since they don't address hand ranges. So basically if you get coolered for a month straight, you could look like you're running hot in that thing because you suck out once or twice more than you should. Total BS.

um, how could you say that about Sklansky bucks vs actual buck in all-in pots?

It is mathematically proven that Sklansky bucks earned are more likely going to be closer to your actual earn than actual bucks

So 'completely worthless' seems a bit much

If I know I'm running bad in all in pots, I am less likely to tilt because of it

ok, completely worthless in determining anything about your game, how to improve it, or how much money you should be winning. yes, it is directionally correct in one part of the game. but that part of the game is not the most important determinant of your win rate and it's something you have no control over, so the total fixation on it is pretty stupid, IMO. But fine, if you guys want to keep checking how you're 'running' every month in all-in pots, go right ahead, i'll stop railing against it.

why? this is so dumb, IMO. but hey, whatever works for you. if I know i'm running bad in all-in pots, but i've tilted off 5 buyins, who the heck cares about the all-in pots where you won zero of the time when you were really getting it in with a whopping 5% equity. whatever. i'm done.
