The hand goes as follows:

***** Hand History for Game 7474150114 *****
$25.00 USD NL Texas Hold'em - Monday, October 20, 08:03:24 ET 2008
Table Table 126407 (Real Money)
Seat 1 is the button
Seat 2: yumi_exit ( $58.64 USD )
Seat 4: RemusPereira ( $28.64 USD )
Seat 5: Beatezu ( $26.72 USD )
Seat 1: Sipostakovic ( $4.13 USD )
Seat 3: bulu1 ( $22.89 USD )
yumi_exit posts small blind [$0.10 USD].
bulu1 posts big blind [$0.25 USD].
** Dealing down cards **
Dealt to Beatezu [ Kd Kc ]
RemusPereira folds
Beatezu raises [$1.00 USD]
Sipostakovic calls [$1.00 USD]
yumi_exit folds
bulu1 calls [$0.75 USD]
** Dealing Flop ** [ Qs, 7h, 6h ]
bulu1 checks
Beatezu bets [$2.46 USD]
Sipostakovic raises [$3.13 USD]
bulu1 raises [$21.89 USD]
Beatezu calls [$19.43 USD]
** Dealing Turn ** [ 5d ]
** Dealing River ** [ 7c ]
Beatezu shows [Kd, Kc ]
Sipostakovic shows [6c, 6d ]
bulu1 doesn't show [Qh, Ac ]
Beatezu wins $36.14 USD from main pot
Sipostakovic wins $11.87 USD from main pot

As you can see I have only some 8.3% chance of winning the main pot given the shortstacked players set. However, I have 76% chance of winning the $36 side pot.

The EV difference given by Holdem manager is -$32.15
Surely this is wrong.
8.3% of $11.87 = $1
76% of $36 = $27.36
So in total I have $28.36 EV in this pot. I won $36, thus my EV diff should be -$7.64

Ok it has already been posted.
Hopefully you can fix that because I'm running better in the EV graph than I actually do.
