lol, srsly?
mb10 hands less/h at max
I don't know I am just guessing.
Not using RIT seems silly to me.

Why some regs would voluntarily want to increase their variance is blowing my mind, guess they are just sick degens or run like sun all the time.
My sentiment exactly.

I heard Phil Ivey never lets it run twice. Why?

nah, if you run like the sun id run it twice every time just to make sure i suck out twice on the same guy for maximum tilt induce.

Probably something to do with the fact he likes to bet 250k$ at craps daily

If your assumptions are correct, than still 15% less variance is a nice present from pokerstars and imo not to underestimate during a long downer where at the end youre way more tiltprone, even to stuff which usually does not affect you - cannot see why regs are not taking this present and are happy with it...

It's not, just seems like it I guess. Look at it this way, would Stars offer something for free that would reduce their bottom line?

Ivey's reasoning for not running it twice is that opponents are much more likely to play draws aggressively against you. For that reason he wants to run it once.
however on zoom most people dont know whether you want to run it once or twice so twice seems the better option.

lol, well that's some pretty bad reasoning for playing draws aggressively..

isnt variance the reason, why all of us (or most ) make money from playing this game???
and thats the reason why i love variance, even though im one of these guys running >100buyins under ev...

+ its just sooooo boring to tie 75% of the pots with AK vs QQ...

imo many regs (including me) don't rit cause they use hm1 and are too lazy to familiarise themselves with new tracking software. and hm1 doesn't show allin ev correctly for rit.
03-10-2013 , 06:31 AM
^been fixed now i think if you have version 1.1.13(?)

edit: incorrect number, don't have that version on my laptop heh

I liked that, always extra happy when I sucked out on the second board

Yup 1.13.01. It was out in 2012 I believe, I can't remember when exactly though. You need to search release threads in hm1 forums.

How can a 50bber not have RIT enabled. They are so dumb considering they shove their stack in the middle every second hand.

Well ratholers aren't exactly the brightest people. On their push/fold chart it didn't indicate that they should use RIT.
03-10-2013 , 12:58 PM
Obviously there are some pros and cons to RIT. I personally like it... When you play a ton of hands and have a decent win rate, you just want your results to be as close to the theoretical as possible.

I doubt this is anything material. Probably something ******ed like the guy ahead losing both going on monkey tilt?
03-10-2013 , 06:09 PM
dont understand why 40bbers can play till 1bb. Allways tilted when im not concetrated pre, open 3x and ****** shove 15-20bb.

All these ******s came from pokerstrategy? Never see other site learning this ASSPENETRATINGSTYLE. Really there should be only 100-1000000BB tables and shallows for shorts.

Disagree- if you play ton then you will much faster achieve long run and variance is not that scary.

No, it is not related to mindset issues at all. If I am wrong then I will not lose anything, however it I am right then it is +EV for me So win-win situation!

Do you realize that the more you play the farer you are on average from your EV ? Or in other words the expected difference between your result and expected result increases with volume ? You never 'hit long run' and allowing any unnecessary variance is just bad money managament.
It's the same thing as flipping (playing roulette is bad analogy) - silly but entertaining for some people. Your argument is exactly that.

You lose utility - by allowing any more variance than you have to you are hurting yourself financially by reducing expected amount of useful things you will be able to buy.
