I'd probably be giving up closer to .01% than 1%. A.P.
And I agree completely with that. If a semi-skilled player makes an
error in 1% of the dealt hands, those are mostly close decisions with
small difference in EV, so the loss in actual payback is very small.
That's why the Player History in OpVP tracks accuracy as the percentage
of potential EV achieved instead of just the percentage of hands played
computer-perfect for max EV. It's also why the program has features to
evaluate the precise EV of a strategy chart and then check your play
against the chart. It turns out that, for most games, a chart with no
penalty considerations will yield within 0.01% of perfect max EV play. ~Dan
