Loss of EV with a $10 min bet

[xxrenegadexx]

I'm sick of waiting for a $5 table to open up(which can take an hour sometimes). Does anyone know my loss in EV playing a $10 min table with a 1-10 spread instead of a $5 table with a 1-20 spread?

A quick sim for a 6D, S17, LS, game using KO. The 1-10 bet ramp was 1-2-3-4 ... 10, the 1-20 bet ramp was 1-4-6-8 ... - 20.

Winrates per 100 hands played:

$13.33/100 $10-$100 spread
$15.90/100 $5-$100 spread

This assumed play-all.

1-10 spread - $10 table also
1-20 spread - $5 table....... both wonging out at a rc of -8
thanks in advance

DOn't you want to base your decisions on TC, not RC in Hi LO?
For example, RC of -8 with one deck played is TC -1 (floored.) After 4 decks played it's -4. BIG difference.

Renegade, you might want to look into powersim.

It's kind of hard to use, and there's some features which it doesn't support (without doing your own coding!) but it's free, and it can answer the fairly straightfoward what-if questions that you're asking.

ive tried ... i must be doing something wrong because im getting a $4 an hour profit with a 1-20 spread. ....

First mistake I made was that the sim has no concept of "units", so if you spread 1-20, you're literally spreading $1 to $20. Enter actual dollar amounts for the bets.
