NO IT ISNT

Our purpose is to look at how people are currently playing. No one is looking to keep the ranges super tight, or find optimal values of ANYTHING.


If the data shows that people are winning with a stat that varies from 30% to 50%, then it shows that people can vary that up quite a bit, and still come out ahead.



Also, "I'm working to develop a method to use past observation to find correct game theoretical strategies in poker games"

Ive done quite a bit of work on this stuff myself. PM me if you wanna compare/discuss methods of abstraction/equil. finding, etc


EDIT:

also to note, wrt to:

[ QUOTE ]
It's almost certain that the optimal VPiP is between 25-35 for 4-6 handed based on various factors. PFR between 17-23. AF between 1.8-2.5. FtRB between 30-40. Other stats are less certain
