Just a question though: Do they rake each pot separately? I remember on tilt before black friday when I used to watch guys playing nosebleed PLO, each pot got raked. Although.... it's like 3$ in a 200k pot up there so it probably doesn't matter to them.
This is only tilting because you think 'a session' matters.

unless you are a robot without emotions it always matters to an extent
01-31-2013 , 11:05 PM
I'm certainly not saying losing doesn't suck. Resolving tilt doesn't mean not feeling emotions.

I'm just saying that framing your results in that way when you're supposed to lose 40%+ of your sessions (I don't know the actual number, but whatever) is probably not going to help you.

haha, i hope you noticed below my post that i said i was kidding. gl sir, hope it turns around.

I'm hardly letting one session affect how I play in the next one, but you can't tell me that it doesn't feel better to leave with a profit than a loss...

If you care at all about the money then it obviously matters.

I guess I was just trying to say it's nice to run as close to EV is possible and leave it at that

logic behind not running it twice vs fish - say we get it in flipping vs a fish and run it twice. often, we're each going to win half the pot. which is fine. say we run it once. either I stack the fish (a good thing for me, I get all his money before another reg does) or the fish doubles up (a good thing for me, as my edge on him is now bigger).

As variance is not inherently bad....why should we avoid it?
Winning it twice as a favourite is not that great, but loosing it twice will probably make you feel as if the universe is taking a crap on you.
I dont rit.

Allin EV doesn't make up that large of a proportion of variance in general. If you look at the standard deviation of your winnings and your EV winnings the EV winnings is only a little smaller. ~20%

I'd imagine this should effectivly half your EV variance so I guess it should reduce your overall variance by 10%.

Probably some bad maths in there somewhere

that would make sense if fish didnt hit and run so often
02-01-2013 , 01:40 PM
rit against a fish is - ev because the hit and run all the time

Just out of curiosity, what would be your logic for not running it twice vs fish?

pretty much this

i think i'm going to stop using RiT at all personally tho, seem to keep losing against the guys who have it turned off and chopping all my 65/35s with it on. think if you can handle the variance it's easier to do w/o.

I think my fds always hit when they are clubs and miss when they are diamonds :O
02-02-2013 , 02:53 AM
clubs are my favourite, but i'm pretty sure hearts are the flush suit.

diamonds are best for flopping it, but never get there if you get it in on the draw. dunno bout spades, i'll do some research (i have an inkling they're the power suit, which means people fold to bets/all-ins because of the perceived abitlity to flop spade flushes or get there if on a draw).

All flush over flushes are confirmed to happen on spade boards.. fold and avoid the cooler if you don't have the nut flush.



Just wondering whether anyone here filters hands for last X months for their HUD, and if so what number? I feel as if my stats might be getting outdated now, but I wonder how often people make a radical change to their game that would be reflected in their stats (probably not as often as I think though).
02-02-2013 , 11:28 AM
I go with 3months.

RIT is for girls!

what is the best HUD for zoom right now? HEM1 vs HEM2 VS PT4.

I have been using HEM 1 for quite a while and really like it. heard lot of negative
things about HEM2 so have not upgraded yet.

Never use PT4 before ,but have seen lot of good feedback about it.

thanks!
02-02-2013 , 04:12 PM
Anyone in here who doesnt run it twice vs regs really doesnt understand variance IMO. Or clearly has never gone 0/12 in flips on a session

I bought HEM2 in less than a week ago and I think its great. Before that I had HM1 för like 2-3 years or so and I was thinking just like you about HEM2 but now Im very pleased that I bought the new one.
