Mmmkay. This is the confusion.
It's pretty common to talk about "playing" as opposed to folding your cards pre flop. I've seen this phrasing many times.
> A guy who won every hand he played, any reasonable way you want to define that, would be by far the most profitable poker player ever.
The point I was trying to make, and probably the OP, is that it is more profitable to win $100 and lose $80 than it is to win $10 and lose $0.
