Aaron, so do you really think that my next 2000 hands won't resemble the first 2000?

[/ QUOTE ]

I think it's highly unlikely that any two consecutive 2000 hand stretches will look similar.

and my suited A's will go in the crapper?

[/ QUOTE ]

That depends on how lucky you are and how well you play them... well... it's mostly the former.

[ QUOTE ]
or maybe that the strong broadways will end up with earning power equal to the strong Ace

[/ QUOTE ]

The strength of broadway cards varies with your opponents. AJ is pretty powerful against loose-passive opposition, but it's not so good against tougher players.

[ QUOTE ]
is this game so random that 2000 hands is just a flyspec?

[/ QUOTE ]

Yes.

If there's one thing i've learned from lurking in the micro's, it's 2000 hands is neither reflective nor respected. My first PT 2000 hands are a world away from the following 2000. And repeat. and repeat. I've decided to get 50000 under my belt before posting PT posts. oh - and start doing session reviews. figure then you'll get quality feedback, and you'll be able to constructively pose questions. ho-hum, only 40000 hands to go!

play about 48,000 more hands and you'll probably answer your own question.
