Re: uNL: you are weak-tight.
i think most of the people answer in a thread with the mindset that hero lost the hand (unless it's obvious he didnt), therefore they'll answer that way.
If they come up with the "right" answer they feel better, thinking of theirselves as better posters. That's an assumption I made. I could be wrong, but i think that's one reason. |

Re: uNL: you are weak-tight.
There's a flush draw on the flop in hand 1, but hand 2 is a rainbow flop. This makes a difference imo.

Great. Now my Pokey ebook is incomplete.
Thanks for a great post! |

It's so hard to find good flunkies these days.... Nonetheless, the change actually makes it MORE likely that our opponent will call our made hand, since he couldn't be on a busted draw. Despite that, people found it LESS likely that villain calls on the end. This mistake actually makes my point stronger, not weaker. |

Re: uNL: you are weak-tight.
Pokey <---so sick.
BTW, I am the king of weak tight, it's something I try to work on nearly everyday. 2+2 + Pokey is slowly leading me down the right path though. Thanks Pokey! |

Re: uNL: you are weak-tight.
i think i have to call sample size on this one:
- in both, about 2/3 respondents selected the middle two categories. - only the 50-75% category has anything that looks like a significant difference between the data sets. - the categories are very broad anyway. if i felt like there was a 50% chance of villain calling in either hand (which i think i do), its very hard to know which to click. - overall sample is a bit small to be drawing too many general conclusions about the state of uNL, although I agree with OP's hypothesis. lol at the particularly weak-tight poster who responded first in the first thread. I love the idea of these tests though; perhaps getting some slightly better known posters to post them (maybe some weeks apart) would help the sample size issues. |
