Default Re: \"How many hands do I need to play...\"

[ QUOTE ]
will someone explain to the mathmatically challanged (me), what "normsinv" in the equation is? and where am I supposed to plug (h) in?

[/ QUOTE ]

You don't plug number of hands in directly (I don't know why I put an "h" there), you use either sets of 100 hands (if using WR/100 and SD/100) or hours played (if using WR/hr and SD/hr).

normsinv is the inverse normal distribution function. I'm too lazy to explain it further right now, and even if I tried I probably wouldn't do it justice.
