To summarize, running it twice doesn't change EV. However, this explanation was terrible, incorrect, and not convincing to anyone who was not ready to be convinced.

In defense of my post, I made a very simple EV equation to convince those non-believers and came out with the right answer. Yeah it could be a lot more complicated and come right at the same answer. If the process is wrong it would not get the right answer plain and simple.

Well, when you're trying to convince someone of something, and you have an obvious error in your argument, it's sort of hard to convince them. It might give the same answer, but it can be coincidental--and if you don't do things correctly, it could have been wrong, and there's no way of really knowing, and that's the problem...if the people you're trying to convince don't believe the answer to begin with, and see problems in your argument, you've gone nowhere.
