Default Re: Why You Shouldnt Play HUSNG with 20 Buyins

You got me thinking with that post Dave. I bet that's the norm and the swings in HU poker (due to psychology/tilt) are bigger than they would be if you were just flipping coins.

Let's do a little experiment. Find your win rate in games where you lost the previous match and compare it to your winrate when you won the previous match. (use every match - no selection bias). If you're a robot, they should be the same over a long sample. But of course, my bet is that most people have better win rates after wins and are worse after losses.

If we all do this, we can can sort of quantify tilt, and how much you are likely to experience (even if you don't think you ever tilt).

I'm gonna look this up and post it when I get home.
