regular HUsng's LC

[jay_shark]

Lets say the average duration of a regular is 15 minutes .
The average duration of a turbo may be 12 minutes .

We may get 4 regulars in one hour or 5 turbos in one hour . So since your variance is a direct function of your win rate , then you should experience more variance playing in the turbos since your win rate will be lower .

If you win 60% playing regs , then your $/h = .60units/h

For your $/h to be more playing regs we need the following to hold true . Let x be your win rate playing turbos .

5*(2*x-1.05)<=0.6/h or x <=58.5% .

So if you take a bigger hit than 1.5% ,from the transition of regs to turbos , then you shouldn't be playing in the turbos for this particular example .

I hope this is FTP. It takes me 48 hands per tourny on avg. (stars, turbos).

Also, there's a fairly high chance that your average game is simply longer than mine. I've seen you recommend a fair number of folds that I would never ever ever even consider making against the average opponent on FT, because you'd be folding yourself to death.

I don't know if that's simply a difference in playstyle, or a difference in our average opponents, but it sounds like your game is more patient than mine, and that fact alone could account for a lot of difference in our average hand count, even without considering structure differences between the two sites.
