Default Re: Calculating standard deviation of X hands

Sample standard deviation for n unknown is :

s.d /sqrtn

So ~ 1/sqrt(10)

Since we use the fact that the standard deviation for 1 heads up sng is ~ 1 . This should make a lot of sense since as n approaches infinity , the standard deviation approaches 0 .
