* Important to notice how poker stats based off very frequent and/or very infrequent actions will require a much larger sample size to get the same level of confidence...
You can also define a "prior" distribution of player stats and then update using Bayes Theorem after each observed opponent action (search google for "beta conjugate prior for binomial likelihood" and/or read some of the "Poker Sleuth HUD" thread/site for better explanation of how to do this).
