Default Re: Stat-reads vs. real reads for multitablers

[ QUOTE ]

I don't think that 50 is a magic number at which your stats suddenly become "more accurate." Is there really a significant difference between 49 and 50 hands?

Yes, but we have to start to assign labels at some point. The 50 is an arbitrary, but statistically significant boundary. Since we have so many opponents, it's just a filter for villains that have only like 20 hands played. i agree, that there is no difference between 49, 50 or 51. This is why the #hands tag is important. I will take the label/note at 75 hands less serious than a label/note at 750 hands, but just as PT I start doing a quick analysis around 50 hands. The VP$IP converges fairly quickly that will give you an estimate of at least that number. At around 100-200, I start narrowing down the PFR. Around 200-500 the AF. Above that I don't change my label per se, but start noting down common threads of play. I 2-table while playing, so I have no advice for more-tablers.
