I couldn't find out exactly how to use the graphs for cash game. I mean, of course I do understand what is a graph, but my question here is whether there is a "normal" graph to which I should compare mine. The question goes also to the many lines the graph shows: all-in EV, showdown winnings, non-showdown winnings. These lines are suposed to be above or under the "winning" line? Is there any "normal" or any good pattern?

There is no normal graph as such, if you make people fold a lot in big pots then your non showdown winnings will be higher than someone who is weak tight and folds too much in big pots. It depends on your style.

Heres some details on the EV line FAQ - Hold'em Manager Poker Tracking Software :: What Does The All-In EV Graph Tell Me? (http://faq.holdemmanager.com/questions/120/What+Does+The+All-In+EV+Graph+Tell+Me%3F+)

Showdown winnings are basically what your winning at showdown, the higher the better obviously

It all depends on if you play:
-loose/tight/maniac (6max maniacs often have flipped showdown vs nonshowdown winning lines)
-6max/fullring
-CAP/RUSH/LIMIT/POT LIMIT/NO LIMIT
-singletable, multitable, mass-multitable
-and how good you are: winrate


I'll assume you play fullring, no limit, multitable, with a 4+BB/100 winrate.
Your ideal session-graph: (orange is EV, red is non-showdown winnings)
