Default Re: HUSNG Statistics Project

[ QUOTE ]

I have the results of over 900k HUSNGs and 132k players that span several months of this year. Rather than sit on this information I'd like to contribute to the forum by compiling useful statistics on... everything.

The things I do have:
- Buyin
- Time of Day
- Result from 2 and 4 man games

Things I do not have:
- A lot of data from the tubos and non-increasing blinds
- Durations

I need 2+2's help to determine what data to extract and how to do it. For example, you want to compare $50s and $100s? How would you do it? You want to know what winrates are achievable? How would you do it? Winning percentage quartiles or what? Want to know what time of day the most fish play? Come up with the rules to do it and I'll get the results.

All ideas are welcome, even if you cant think of how to do it.

Another thing you might try to do is rank the players (or even compute Elo-type ratings as in chess) rather than just look at a simple statistic like 1) ROI or 2) dollars/day. The problem with 1 is that it will favour people who avoid the strong players, while 2 will favour the grinders. This may only be possible with HU games.

Working out who is the 'strongest' SnG player and seeing where you rank sounds like much more fun.

(I'm trying to do this for heads-up cash games.)
