It depends on the game you look at. Let's stick with the example cited, 9/6 Jacks +2.1%. If you stick with MCR, the average cost of a 5 royal drought, in fact any length drought, is zero. If you play MaxEV you're losing .34% on average while not hitting royals. A 5 royal drought on dollars would cost you 5 x 40,391 x $5 x .34% = $3,433 on average.

Depending on the size of your bankroll, that number of $3,433 might or might not be significant. But in any case it is certainly significantly different on a ratio comparison with zero.
