I don't believe this but I'm too tired to do any math.

[/ QUOTE ]

6-8 tables 8 0r so hours a day.. Feel free, its actually pretty conservative

[/ QUOTE ]

impossible to figure out unless you had the hole cams. You'd need to know all the other players cards + the burn cards etc. That estimate seems too high, almost regardless of how many hands you play in a week, 6-8 tabling.

Down and dirty estimate: For full ring, 7 tabling, let's estimate 70 hands/ table or about 500 hands per hour, 56 hours/ week. That's an insane number of hands: 28k.

If you play about 30% of your hands, that means you're actually seeing around 9k flops. You should be going to showdown somewhere around 1/3 of the time, or 3k. A good player should win at least 1/2 of the showdowns, leaving less than 1500 hands lost at showdown. Most of those will be hands where you were either behind the whole time (e.g., on a flush draw with nothing else) or your opponent hit a >2 outer (e.g., on a flush draw). Very generously, we might say that 20% of the time Villain is sticking around with only 1-2 outs. That leaves 300 hands, of which Villain will hit his 1-2 outer between 6-12 times.

So yeah, you're full of it.

If you want to be cuddled and have people tell you what you want to hear, then please just ask for that.. I am a winning player and have been for years. I am telling you the truth..Sorry if you dont like it

You played 2 hands in 2 hours?? What does that equate to 2% vpip?

Just go broke with your style of play and come back and ask for more sympathy or take winning players advice.

Cry and whine and go broke or realize what you are doing wrong and correct it.. Doesnt really matter to me, I was trying to help

Ok you are right, I have such a huge incentive to make somethign like this up so I can see why you would think that.

I get paid to come on here and make stuff up, please forgive me.

Anyone that plays 30k hands or more a week will have similiar findings..

Thanks.

Ah! I finally got it! It's like Darth Vader from Star Wars, only instead of Vader it's Poker. You see? Where you would normally say Vader, which is the name of one of the characters in that movie, you replace that with Poker - the card game. You see how it works? Instead of Darth Vader, it's Darth Poker, it's like the same, only flipped around and made all crazy.
