Default Re: Totally new poker strategy, want to get your input

I don't like strategies that require too high a number of victories to realise a profit. In horse racing it is called being a bridge jumper, when you bet on a heavy favorite to show(1-3rdplace) A 2.00 bet pays back 2.10 cents. You bet 10,000 to win 500 but then the horse doesn't finish so now you lost ten thousand. Can it be done successfully? Yes.But it makes your risk level rise really high and your profit margin will be razor thin. You have to churn 100,000's of dollars to make anything resembling money and you only have to lose 1 in 19 times to be back at the start line.

Although the numbers for your stategy in poker will be different, I think it is a good description of your intent except unlike horse racing where some players can create a winning formula with it, I do not think it will work in poker for a number of reasons.... but hey, thats what experiments are for - better your money than mine. Post the results.
