That's a bit of a specious argument if you don't mind me saying so. The comparison between cash and DYMs is nowhere near that clear cut.
You are assuming that cash games work on the basis that you only play one pot every n hands and that you get all your cash in and either win or lose. What is much more likely to happen is that you will play multiple pots, each of which will be subject to rake. Therefore the overall rake in a cash game will be considerably larger than you suggest.
Apologies if that is how you actually play your cash games.
"Apologies if that is how you actually play your cash games."
LOL No not really Vince.
he point im making is that whether I am risking £5 in a pot or £50 the risk reward is far better in a cash game then risking it in DYMs I am open to your wisdom in explaining it any differently.
Your the man for the numbers so I respect your word.
But for every pot you play if you consider you commit the same into a dym then the risk reward remains relatively poor surly?
I accept you get more play for your risk but that is not relevant in my personal scheme of things.
It's all a matter of your perceived edge over the cash table and your expectation of how long (i.e. how many pots) it would take you to double up. You also need to factor in the level that you are playing due to the capping of the rake. We can throw some numbers about, if you like. They might prove interesting to some people but they will be a bit "involved", I suspect.
