Looking carefully at this graph, at full ring:
3.8% of players win 0-0.5 bb/100 (pro-rated equally between -0.5 and +0.5)
6.1% of players win 0.5-1.5 bb/100
4.2% of players win 1.5-2.5
3.3% of players win 2.5-3.5
2.1% of players win 3.5-4.5
1.7% of players win 4.5-5.5
1.2% of players win 5.5-6.5
1.0% of players win 6.5-7.5
0.8% of players win 7.5-8.5
and so on...
The above equals 24.2% of players winning between 0 and 8.5bb/100, and there's some more winning above this level. It will end up being about 1/3. So I think that your graph really hammers home my point. Thanks for confirming.
