more than other games i reckon your win rate at 5 card limit draw is highly dependant on the quality of your opposition

assuming your playing roughly the same quality field i would guess that it is a very small number - say 5,000 hands or so before your win rate starts to reflect something close to your long term expectation

i kept stats manually at 5 card for a period of about 3,000 hands - what was truly startling for me was that i would win in a given session around 80% of the time - a session normally being 30+ minutes at a given table - over about 600,000 hands of decent winning at short handed limit holdem i won 54% of the sessions i played

limit draw has no variance
