THIS IS WHAT IT'S ALL ABOUT. NOT THE VALUE OF FUTURE PLAY BUT HOW KEWLJ VALUES AN $8800 LOSS.
I'm not just talking about already earned FP. I'm talking about the entire play(whatever that may be) from beginning to end. FP doesn't even have to be involved.

I don't know that you will be able to find anyone who's mathematically savvy that will suggest you can accumulate EV in the way you think KJ is representing it.
