| According to the EV calculations in HEM for the ~11k hands I've gotten in, I'm at $700 below EV, primarily from the last 4.5k hands of PLO100 and ~500 hands at PLO200. How much weight should I give this when evaluating how things are going and/or what I should expect for the future? |

| I've never seen one where a player ran above EV, I do have my doubts, but 11k hands is nowhere near enough when equity runs so close to each other. I'd focus on other aspects other than all-in EV, as that's not where your edge is going to come in PLO. |

| Yeah I pretty much ignore it after 1 pot where we got all but the last $10 in with him drawing to an off suit gutter which he made, so my EV for the hand was 0. I'll look at specific hands to make sure I knew where I was at of course but once you start looking at it over time I think it's a weird enough number it's better to spend our time elsewhere. |
