Default Re: Poker Stars: VPP per hand - post-legislation edition

I just realized something really weird.

You get more points playing $1/2 LHE(full) than you do $2/4 LHE(full).

They both award 1 point for a 5BB pot. At $2/4 you get an extra point every time the pot is 17.5BB which rarely happens. When it does happen it doesn't make up for the fact that at $1/2 you will reach the 5BB mark more often.

Has anybody else noticed this, or is my math off somewhere?

Must be that you are playing in $1/$2 limit games with pretty good average pot sizes. Over time I have 0.48 VPP/hand at $2/$4 and 0.44 VPP/hand at $1/$2.

Smallish sample of low table averages.

1/2: .38/hand
2/4: .37/hand

Does the extra fpp at a $70 pot really come into play that often during peak hours?
