Default Re: Coping with GOOD luck

I can't use BB/100s as a measure because I don't datamine and I don't think I have any player in my database who has over 5000 hands-- which still is too small for a reliable sample size when it comes to BB/100s. I don't even display this stat (it used to be calculated incorrectly across multi-limits in PTO-- as well).

Any time there are too many players with VPIP 25 or less, PF raise > 5 and TA > 1.5 and W$SD > 60* at the tables such that this is pretty much the average, then I don't have much of an exploitable advantage. I am convinced that if your numbers are very close to these that you are almost certainly a very solid winning player. There may be very good players whose numbers stray in both directions for VPIP and Pre-flop raise percentage, but if these numbers are Higher for such a good player then they are very good to have at your table because they generate action.

* these numbers are based on full ring play.
