I don't see a problem with what Daniel said, he just worded it in a slightly vague way.Of course DN would know that the equity is the same; when he says it's "slightly less risky" to semi-bluff when you know the other player will run it twice he is obviously referring to the reduced variance.It's the same when Barry says he runs it once to make players fear making these plays against him - the fear is only of the variance, not the immediate or long term profitability of the play.
