Default Re: Normal Distribution -- Applicable to Winrates?

I think that more often than not, people say they play bad when they run bad because - well, they're being put in [censored] spots where you have to make difficult decisions. When you call down with a loser 5 times in a row, you cant help but feel down about your play. But the pots are often justifiably large that you dont have to be right very often. It's just that, for the several most recent events, you happened to have a loser. That doesnt mean you're playing poorly because you showed the hand down.

And then there are others who are just tilt monkeys.
