Default Re: w$sd is a worthless stat (semi-brag)

[ QUOTE ]
If you look at it in the short-term though, there probably would be a linear relationship since the people with really high W$SD in the short-term would be the ones were running hot. I think the data you get for people with >5000 hands would be much more accurate than the data for people who played less, even if there was still a little bit of a bias.

This hypothesis could easily be tested.

It's a well known assumption that losing gamblers quit. So the people that only play a little bit, what is THEIR w$sd?

Along the same lines, I would bet that of all the people in pf's database with <500 hands, their VPIP is greater than the people in pf's database with >5,000 hands.
