brag: free $300 from Full Tilt (NOT spam)

[Gildwulf]

The funny thing is I haven't played their cash games in months. It must have been a loooong investigation. Could these be the bots that Mr Gatorade was talking about?



Dear Gildwulf,

Upon conclusion of a recent investigation of cash game play, we have determined that opponents of yours used unauthorized automated software while playing.

In this instance, we have seized the account balances of the offending players and redistributed it to players who were victimized. The calculation was based on the number of hands played against the offending players as well as the amount won or lost against them.

With this redistribution, we have determined that your are entitled to a refund of $295.75, which will be placed in your account in the next 4-6 hours.

For various reasons, we are unable to advise you of the names of the players or any other information regarding this case; we thank you for your understanding in this regard.

yes but not even for that long...maybe 300 hands? And that was a while ago, like 3 months ago.

I'll have to check my pt database. Let's compare when I get home tonight.

[Scary_Tiger]

I can't compare cause I'm a degen doesn't have databases together.

Rounding is the process of reducing the number of significant digits in a number. The result of rounding is a "shorter" number having fewer non-zero digits yet similar in magnitude. The result is less precise but easier to use.

Example: 73 rounded to the nearest ten is 70, because 73 is closer to 70 than to 80.

Rounding can be analyzed as a form of quantization.

There are many different rules that can be followed when rounding. Some of the more popular are described below.


Common method

This method is commonly used in mathematical applications, for example in accounting. It is the one generally taught in elementary mathematics classes. This method is also known as Symmetric Arithmetic Rounding or Round-Half-Up (Symmetric Implementation)

* Decide which is the last digit to keep.
* Increase it by 1 if the next digit is 5 or more (this is called rounding up)
* Leave it the same if the next digit is 4 or less (this is called rounding down)

Examples:

* 3.044 rounded to hundredths is 3.04 (because the next digit, 4, is less than 5).
* 3.045 rounded to hundredths is 3.05 (because the next digit, 5, is 5 or more).
* 3.0447 rounded to hundredths is 3.04 (because the next digit, 4, is less than 5).

For negative numbers the absolute value is rounded.

Examples:

* −2.1349 rounded to hundredths is −2.13
* −2.1350 rounded to hundredths is −2.14

Round-to-even method

This method is also known as unbiased rounding, convergent rounding, statistician's rounding or bankers' rounding. It is identical to the common method of rounding except when the digit(s) following the rounding digit start with a five and have no non-zero digits after it. The new algorithm is:

* Decide which is the last digit to keep.
* Increase it by 1 if the next digit is 6 or more, or a 5 followed by one or more non-zero digits.
* Leave it the same if the next digit is 4 or less
* Otherwise, all that follows the last digit is a 5 and possibly trailing zeroes; then change the last digit to the nearest even digit. That is, increase the rounded digit if it is currently odd; leave it if it is already even.

With all rounding schemes there are two possible outcomes: increasing the rounding digit by one or leaving it alone. With traditional rounding, if the number has a value less than the half-way mark between the possible outcomes, it is rounded down; if the number has a value exactly half-way or greater than half-way between the possible outcomes, it is rounded up. The round-to-even method is the same except that numbers exactly half-way between the possible outcomes are sometimes rounded up—sometimes down.

Although it is customary to round the number 4.5 up to 5, in fact 4.5 is no nearer to 5 than it is to 4 (it is 0.5 away from both). When dealing with large sets of scientific or statistical data, where trends are important, traditional rounding on average biases the data upwards slightly. Over a large set of data, or when many subsequent rounding operations are performed as in digital signal processing, the round-to-even rule tends to reduce the total rounding error, with (on average) an equal portion of numbers rounding up as rounding down. This generally reduces the upwards skewing of the result.

Round-to-even is used rather than round-to-odd as the latter rule would prevent rounding to a result of zero.

Examples:

* 3.016 rounded to hundredths is 3.02 (because the next digit (6) is 6 or more)
* 3.013 rounded to hundredths is 3.01 (because the next digit (3) is 4 or less)
* 3.015 rounded to hundredths is 3.02 (because the next digit is 5, and the hundredths digit (1) is odd)
* 3.045 rounded to hundredths is 3.04 (because the next digit is 5, and the hundredths digit (4) is even)
* 3.04501 rounded to hundredths is 3.05 (because the next digit is 5, but it is followed by non-zero digits)
