Default Re: Get serious about measuring your performance: Sharpe Ratio

In poker, probably 0 since there isn't a poker game with 0 standard deviation.

Blackjack players use a calculation like the Sharpe ratio to compute the attractiveness of playing different games.

Is the OP saying that the excess return for these cats is 10 times the standard deviation? If so, wow, that would lead to huge quantities of money in no time. over what time period is that measured? 100 hands of poker is only an hour or less [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]
