Default Re: 99.99890581% chance that cheaters were operating on Absolute?

More information needed - but my first take is that the chance is a LOT smaller than 99.998% that this is cheating.

If (for instance) a player has a strategy of limping every hand and folding to any big raise - it just so happens there are a lot of people who make big raises very frequently with the top pocket pairs (and perhaps with AK), but not with lesser holdings. Against such people, yeah, he's going to fold whenever he's up against a big pocket pair and going to play the rest of the time.

Now, if you could show this smarty always folding to big raises from pocket pairs, AND always calling equally-sized raises when the same raiser has a big ace or a bluff, that might be evidence.
