Default Re: The Mathematics of poker by Bill Chen & some dude...

I substituted 400 big bets for 300 big bets in Jerrod 'Some dude' Ankenman's formula, the result for RoRU that I got were rorU = 35.53% almost twice the rate for having 300 big bets, obviously this can't be correct.

I also did a check of the example given on page 302. Implementing the formula as described by Jerrod and I got a slightly different answer of 3.566% RoRU.

Both of my calculations were done in excel with formulas that correctly worked out Jerrod's example given earlier on this thread!!

I can't see any mistake that I might have made. Is it possible that there is a problem with this formula or with the way the dude descibed it here?
