my friend who posts a lot here on 2p2 said samo was samh on PS...i've seen him around on stars for a while, playing up to 25-50 sometimes, though he's been at my 5-10 tables a lot recently. his stats are only around 27-20...so i figured he cant be right, anyone know?

i find it hard to believe that he'd suddenly tighten up considerably after sodomizing the party games

hahaha samh133 is not samoleus, he is maxemus125 or something on ub. he's a very solid TAG player and a guest pro @ cardrunners, but hes a mere mortal and therefore nowhere near the unimaginable level of samoleus.

What a gross session, I should have just watched the hockey game. I'm thinking that 5/10nl isn't worth the varience to me right now.

fwiw requin i think i swing 4 buyins in EVERY direction in 1k hands this month.

I have a question about winrates...Is there any way to know what range your true win rate will fall in in the long run if you know your win rate over some sample size?

[fsuplayer]

sure, but u have to have a [censored] ton of hands for it to really mean anything.

[aejones]

I can tell you your exact winrate.

Play infinite hands, get back to me. If you played your infinite hands on Party Poker and are now playing on Stars, please reduce your winrate by 33%, k thanks.

Reasons why Younghov shouldn't complain.

Today really tested me. Running bad and losing isn't nearly as bad as playing like garbage and losing. I'm really glad I stuck it out and got my head together.
