Default Re: The Wotmog theory

Gregery,

I want to say that I think that according to this formula there are only two relevant values. The value of your chips, and the value of the chips you don't have. I guess you'd take into account someone like Negreanu in the field (IE, your chips worth less, chips you don't have are worth more), and that this value can obviously change throughout the competition. However, any chip you make is a chip you make, regardless of where you got it from. If you are in a field of 1000 players and you stack Negreanu, you probably will not be able to change the value of the chips you now hold because the difference in the field is basically unchanged.

However, if you are three handed with Negreanu and he goes broke to a complete fish, the value of your stack goes up significantly.

That's how I think you should approach it.

This was a really really really really good post.
