That's one sexy graph! High stakes (hu?) limit and that's all the variance he's had? Damn impressive...

Weren't you on a 1312038710293810 hand breakeven stretch at 10/20 a little over a year ago?

If so, glad to see things have turned around!

What I actually did in the first video I did after becoming a part of the stoxpoker video staff was I opened up 3 tables of my 5/10 play from two years back in the poktertacker replay feature (it only lets you run one at a time, so I had to capture a few first with camtasia) and did a critique of my 2005 play. The closing tagline was something like "At this point in time I thought I was pretty good at playing pretty well, but as you can see I'm now able to find mistakes in the replay faster than I can talk about them. So the important lesson here is that no matter how good you are, or how good you think you are (which as you can see may be entirely different from the fact of the matter), you can always always get better."

What's kind of ironic is that the better I get at poker the more mistakes or potential mistakes I perceive per session.

bryce and gw,

what do you think of this quote from DD?

[ QUOTE ]
The key to achieving a high hourly winrate with low risk of ruin at HU limit hold'em is 98% game selection and 2% skill at poker.

[/ QUOTE ]

That's sort of a silly statement. The best way to reduce variance in any form of poker is to jam your winrate through the roof. Your winrate is always going to describe a relationship between yourself and your opponents, so you can increase it by being extremely picky about who you play or by improving your own play to the point that it's that much better than your oppositions', or both.

TheBryce,

Can you tell us how you went about improving your game early on?

Did you datamine a bunch and run PT queries?
Did you work stuff out using Stove and pen and paper?
Did you get expensive 1-1 coaching?
Or just IM/post with other players?

Now that you're better than everyone else, what do you do to work on your game? PT queries on your own db? coaching/opinions from ppl who are almost as good as you?

Sorry for noob questions but this is really impressive and is making me feel kinda sorry for myself that I am -6bb/100 loser after 3k hands at huhu and struggle to beat 10/20 and 15/30 Stars 6max games.

It would not be worth his time to play any NL game lower than..... I don't know, 25/50? 50/100? I am quite certain that back in the day when he bothered, he could indeed beat 1/2 anyway.

all i'm saying is this is an overrated accomplishment. any mouth-breather can win at limit, it's a game of no skill and high variance. i'll try not to say "i told you so" when there are threads popping up about bryce's 3 million downswing.

If I make $2.1 million jr bacons playing poker this year I thik I will buy an olympic-sized swimming pool and make it into a giant ball pit. Then I'd invite everyone over for some ball pit partytime.

Also some of the balls would contain cocaine and/or very small but attractive strippers

Not quite. All you were saying was that he could not beat 1/2 NL. Which was ridiculous. Qualify it now with your "no skill and all variance", but that still does not change the fact that you made a ridiculous comment. If you would like to start again with your new thoughts, maybe people will agree, maybe not, but don't change halfway through.
