On the flip side, to win more when playing versus a strong player.



Absolute statement like this one just doesn't sit well with me.
You're right the first two times, but is saying almost no reason an absolute?

If a player on a short bankroll goes on a heater such that a decent percentage of their bankroll is on table, that would be the time to lock in the win instead of paying as scared money.

It's certainly fine to argue other objectives than maxing win rate, but when alternatives aren't clearly stated, such argument just seems like trolling.

Actually, I meant that some rooms require moving whole stack.

And some rooms don't let you move if you're above 1.5 BI.

I just think any table change is because of me.

mike - I am currently losing 2.5k in my last 140 hours.

I spent the prior 8k+ hours winning at a very high clip. Does that mean that I have gotten significantly worse at poker?

What it means is in small samples there is a LOT of noise...that noise does not quiet down until you hit a reasonable number of hours. Many think that number is north of 1,000 when it comes to live poker

Heh, in my last 23 hours I'm down about $1k at $1/2.

Nice little stretch of ****ty cards and everything missing when I raised or called, with only a couple of big hands: one big set under set for $300/each, AA < AQ on a Q high dry board for $300/each, JJ < K2 where he tilt-shoved preflop for $100, handful of other $200 pots that went the wrong way from ahead. Wouldn't change the way I played any of that.

From my own data it looks like 500 hours is enough to get rid of most of the noise in WR, while still being able to see trends over time, like being worse when I first started, and a noticeable improvement when I started getting into splashy home games. As it is it's a larger chunk of a year to get 500 hours, so any larger sample you might be able to get from playing live is going to be over such a long time period that the game conditions may not even be comparable from the start to the end .
