There are numerous reasons why a player or team would track EV. Most of the successful teams and even many solo player pay themselves according to EV results. For team platers EV accumulated represents you share of contribution to team win. For solo players it is a way to be sure you don't pay yourself more than you have actually "earned", taking variance instead of money won. But you, Alan, won't understand this.

You're absolutely right kewlj! I don't understand this and based on everything you wrote I can't understand it. I can't understand accumulating +EV and losing real money.

Now, I'm asking. Is that so terrible? I'm honestly asking.
