I think you have two mistakes here.
First, is the EV gives you the value that you can expect to win playing those hands, so you must multiply by (1+EV) or just sum your bet to the amout that you calculated.
The right value there is $15.8 (you collect your own bet and win another 5.8).

And I think there are another mistake, and is assuming that you are just playing for 1BB.
You will fold all the other mediocre hands, but when you hold one of those 23 hands you will raise 2, 3 or 4BB. So, you will never play those hands for 1BB bet (maybe in an ocasional situation doing a slow play).
