Maybe James is the one in a billion (or trilion, etc...) luck bucket?



[/ QUOTE ]

Lets add to James hand total the hand totals of 10 or 20 other top notch 2+2ers who share similar stats and winrates. Average of say 500,000 hands apiece, will give us 5 million hands.

I think you are going to need to come up with a number bigger than trillion.

Please note the well placed "etc" in my post.

Now consider the fact that DERB is not alone in these achievements. We aren't talking about some guy that just got lucky.

Usually before one considers a certain fact they are presented with some sort of evidence that what they are being told is indeed a fact and not some worthless BS being spouted by some clown on an internet forum.

At last we agree! That's been my point all along. Of course, the difficult part here is determining exactly which BS is worthless, and which isn't.

99.99% confidence;

SD/100 Lower Bound Upper Bound
20 0.04 5.14
21 -0.09 5.26
22 -0.22 5.39
23 -0.34 5.52
24 -0.47 5.65
25 -0.6 5.77

I think with his numbers the lotto argument is very valid, even if you tweak his SD and confidence a few points either way.

Even considering how high his BB/100 is?

I just learned about confidence intervals in a class. I should be able to figure this out. Im gonna try anyways.

edit-ok nm its already been done, i think this is what you are talking about anyways.


[/ QUOTE ]

Confidence intervals don't correctly predict the likelihood of this player being a winner, since this player was chosen because of the abnormality of his winrate.
