Re: HU rake considerations in split pot games
I think your estimate is off.
Every time you bet on the end with a lock on one side, where your opponent has a marginal hand on the other side, you lose .05bb more than if you check.
Every time he calls you when you get both sides, you gain 1 extra bb
You'd have to only get one side 20x time as as often as you get both in order for it to be bad to bet. I think you scoop more than 1/20 times on the end when you have a lock on one side, no? If he never folds when you have a lock on (at least) half the pot, I think that's a very good thing.
