You still need to multiply utility of those events by their probability. Objective frequency is not as objective as it may seem, it's just a point at which the posterior is no longer expected to change, given more information. Or, alternatively, it's "physical probability", a parameter in your model that has nothing to do with subjective probability and expected utility maximization, and has the status similar to that of, say, mass.
