You need:
a) Winrate over the sample (x)
b) Number of hands (n)
c) Standard Deviation (found on the "More Info" window) (s)

You can then calculate it as follows:

For a 95% Confidence Interval:
x <u>+</u> 1.96 * s/sqrt(n)

For a 99% Confidence Interval:
x <u>+</u> 2.5758 * s/sqrt(n)

Standard Deviations tend to be pretty large, so expect the ranges to be large, as well.

12607 hands
11.73 BB/100
30.7998 Big Bets SD/100

So, uh, what's that do for you? How do I reverse engineer a confidence rate from those numbers?

for the biggest winner in poker ever, you suck at math. he gave you the goddam formula. you dont have a calculator?

[/ QUOTE ]No he didn't. What he gave isn't even an equation. You go ahead and try and solve it.

Uh... yes it is. What the heck would you call it?

rvg did the calculation right, although his work looks a bit weird.

Of course, remember that 12k hands isn't really enough to get a very random sample.
