50 cents a hand times 5000 hands means I would give up $2,500 playing the min Royal strategy. I agree it's a matter of opinion --- but to me that's clearly significant. Voluntarily giving up 0.4% on a play that is possibly worth less than that is against my religion. The play itself was worth 100.15% or thereabouts --- plus one-time-only matching offer of seed money plus an unknown amount (when I was making the play) of comps and mailers.
For it to make sense I would have to believe that using the strategy would improve my mailers in the future by more than $2,500. I'm nowhere close to believing that. Whether or not it "would have been true" is unknowable.
