Re: Is there anything more ridonkulous than the mid-limits in AC?

Ok, so Al forgot what happens when you just fold, but isn't everyone learning the lesson of the statistics a little too well?
1. The table in WITHG is for a finite set of hands. The underlying mean of the distribution is not revealed to us and the hands that were marginal in the data sample may actually be losers (or bigger winners).
2. The results are the results for the play of a particular high limit player. I don't think we know who he is, but he likely plays better than Al. Against the same competition, Al may get crushed with 43s.
3. The results are for play against a particular set of steal raisers. We don't know them, either, but they probably play better than Al's competition.
So, maybe all we can say from that data is that one particular high stakes player should be relatively indifferent between playing or folding 43s to a steal raise. Al's opponent here should probably be deciding what to do based on other considerations or consideration of how well he plays vs. Al.

Pretty good for a guy who claims to lack a formal education.
Check out the results for mid, low and grinder also, they are pretty similar to the high stakes.
