Do you have any idea why the win rate for GPT-5.2 is higher than Gemini 3 Flash yet the former loses money while the latter earns money? Is it just bet sizing (betting more when it has a good hand) or something else?

There are a few reasons that come to mind, such as winning larger pots on average, and also playing more hands by virtue of not getting knocked out as frequently.
