OT: Theory Question

[HAL PHIPA]

Certainly if you sit in a poker game and fold everyhand you will lose money. It seems the three options you have for any decision should have some sort of mathmatical relationship, EV may be a bad way to talk about it though. Does everyone agree there should always be a relationship? If there is a reationship than folding cant always be netrual. Sometimes folding has to be quite bad so if folding in these spots ins't - ev than what should it be called? Or is it always netrual?

Folding is not neutral to your bankroll. You are just using the term 'ev' differently.
