Don't sell yourself short, Dunbar ;)
You can get the respective "JB strategy" hand frequencies for DDB simply using a program like WinPoker: Pull up DDB and load the paytable with the corresponding values for JB (all quads are 25, etc). Then simply proceed as you suggest in your first post.

I should have noted that the "easy" calc I outlined can only be done when the 2 games have the same payout categories, which is the case for JOB and BPD. You could not, however, use this method to find the cost of using JOB strategy while playing a DDB game, because DDB has separate payouts for different quad ranks. For a calc like getting the cost of using JOB strategy to play DDB, a dedicated feature like DanP described in OpVP is especially useful.

...These kind of calcs are easy to do. You just need a pay table with hand frequencies accurate to 5 significant figures. These kinds of tables can be found in VPW, DRA-VP, and WinPoker, among others. To analyze the question in Bob's column, you'd just start with a table of 9/6 JOB frequencies and change the Quad pay from 25 to 80 and the 2-pair pay from 2 to 1. Then multiply each pay times its corresponding frequency and add up the 10 terms. Your answer should be 99.61%.
