Poker Poker Poker!: Re: [vpFREE] Bob Dancer's LVA

That can't be right. Either there are alternates or the article is poorly written. The article mentions HOW MUCH and HOW OFTEN you win (emphasis by article author).

What else has that? Aren't those the same elements you need for EV calculations??? :-)

So I took it to mean that there may be alternate strategies out there for this. If you look at it from a traditional poker perspective, the article implies that "outs" matter. Having 8 outs (open ended straight) may be more valuable than a straight flush draw with one out.

I'm not saying that's the answer, just an example. But the article clearly implies that there are alternates out there.

Like he said in the article the strategies never change. Everything is based on the infinite long term.
What changes is the dependencies on the "dealt in " hands.
When you play a single line game a dealt in Royal has the same value and impact of a royal that you draw.
If you are playing 100 play an individual royal is almost insignificant. It has roughly the same value as a dealt in full house.
A dealt in royal is highly significant on multi line games and the more lines played the more significant that becomes.

Many times when playing 50 or 100 play machines in order to reduce the swings of the game I end up accomplishing the opposite because of a lack of dealt in hands. It is a puzzlement.

Fascinating article. I enjoyed it. Sounds like there might be some more work to be done here. I mean, what *should* the multi strategies be? There's probably no (any?) easy answer to that.
