Leader, are you saying that WTSD converges much faster than AF?

I've always been under the impression, that WTSD was one of the stats, that took longest to converge.

as for which converges faster, wtsd or AF, it's misleading to think that wtsd converges faster. for our purposes AF converges faster in the following sense:

over all villains, AF is usually somewhere between 0.5 and 2.5, an interval of 2.

over all villains, WTSD is usually somewhere between 30% and 45%, an interval of 15.

over 100 hands, the error in AF is roughly 0.4 or 1/5 of the interval in question.

over 100 hands, the error in WTSD is roughly 8% or 1/2 of the interval in question.

so after a 100 hands we will have a much better idea of how the villain compares with other villains in terms of AF than in terms of WTSD.

but i definitely agree that aggr. freq. is a better measure, as i talked about in my 100th post calculation. in fact this is precisely what my "adjusted AF" attempts to approximate from regular AF and WTSD as initial data. i did this calculation because nobody seemed to be using aggr. freq. and all people looked at was regular AF and WTSD.
