red line by itself doesn't mean much, i don't get this obsession it's like new sklansky bucks or something

If you look at the Isildur/Durrr match - it tells a lot about it.

true, it doesnt mean much by itself.

but my thoughts are that if everything else about their play balances out, then the winner is going to be the one who steals more.

i really dont know if isil is making huge mistakes in other areas of his game that pa can exploit and make up for that deminishing red line.

Not sure if it's possible, remove the other 3 lines and it doesn't tell you crap. If anything, making your red line skyrocket is a piece of cake - just fire at every pot and never fold to pressure.
You'll have the baddest red line in the world of pokers and still lose your shirt.

Isi thinks he's better. PA says he's better. The general 2+2 consensus seems to indicate Isildur is a better No limit player than PA.

My question, assuming the aforementioned is true, is what makes Isi the favorite? I would love to hear the group's thoughts.

also, i know with those samples, isil's redline could partly be "running hot" and not just "stealing".

it was a dumb question from the get go i think.

If you keep firing at every pot any reasonable player will eventually call so it won't go down as red line.

but it doesn't matter, you still win all the pots that they don't call, so if you're a monkey aggro + a huge calling station your red line will look ridiculous every time

getting called doesnt directly affect your redline, no?

That's a bad thing that isildur is 19. Most 19 year olds are dumb as hell and don't know anything about money. Him having a lot of it can be really bad.

we wish.

if youre constantly firing every pot, every street, the average player will just milk you all the way to the river with just an average hand. the tons of small pots you win wont make up for the big ones you'll lose.

Yeah, because he hasn't already shown total disregard for money or anything.

Hey guys. The obfuscation with the highstakes_live-results feed is that I've been noticing since its inception and people are now slowly noticing is caused by the fact that the numbers are affected by a completely irrelevant set of data:

Suppose hsdb tracks the net win/loss of the last 24 hours. If a large pot was won 23h50m ago, and if we are watching isildur play Patrick, then the stuff that is happening currently is as important as the stuff that is fixing to slide off of the data set close to ~23 hours ago.

In other words, stuff that is happening currently affects the hsdb live stats as much as stuff that has happened ~23 hours ago because say Isil wins 3 pots of 200k each currently, it can be offset by isil losing 3 pots of 200k each exactly 23h50m ago, and therefore the "feed" is always innacurate unless insildur and patrick agree to let a 24 hour "cool down period" elapse between their sessions so that the hsdb can capture a period of 24 hours without data so that it's "moving average" can rest back to zero.
