Re: My stats

Re: My stats
Yes, I understand the horse race concept.
Umm...you could beat the 1/2 game playing with VP$IP of 70%.
I would not be able to.

Re: My stats
Poker_CPA, *TT*,
This is a level, right?
OP's numbers are just too high.
I'm looking at actual "Plrs/4th" numbers on Pokerstars and OP's are generally higher.
Given
Plrs/4th = VP$IP...

Re: Pokertracker Stud
Hi Praxising,
I've had some minor issues with PT:
1- As your db increases in size, PT's response gets slower. On an older machine this might be a real issue.
2- Related to 1, if you are...

Book at Pokerstars???
A while back one of the others stated the book would likely be available though Pokerstars' FPP store.

Thanks

Re: Input is appreciated 1/2 Stud
3rd:
At Pokerstars $1/2, I say call 3rd and look for an opportunity to raise/thin on 4th or 5th. To me, this is a marginal raise. Worst case, callers pay $0.50 vs a $4.70 pot ((7*0.10 ante) +(7*.50)...

Re: Making the Switch
Actually, winrate, in terms of BB/100, should go down when you multi-table. But this is compensated for by the fact that winrate, in terms of BB/hr, goes up.

Re: bank roll
Yeah, Mr. Bluenose, good points.
Having myself experienced the vagaries of variance, I concur that 300BB is minimum. 500BB gives much better protection and peace of mind. And I agree that as BR...

Yes, please use converter.
I think you should fold 3rd the first time around and definitely the 2nd. Specially tournament but ring too. I know it's tempting but your hearts are not live at 3rd....
