Try these PT filters

yea, betting at small/orphan pots
this is pretty standard especially hu

Oh. I was misreading it. I thought you were considering semi auto raising preflop. I am usually out of sinc. But I thought I was quite a ways out this time. Now I get it. Yeah. Good subject.

The thing I find interesting is the difference between filter 1 and filter 2. Some of us do dramatically better and some of us do dramatically worse.

There has to be some sort of reasoning behind this based on motivation of postplay versus variance doesn't there?

Is this the frequency that you are talking about Aaron?

[Bona]

Well it may well be that the number of hands generated on filter two is so small that it isn't nearing any kind of convergence status. We might have to play a half million hands each to get a decent comparable.

Well, I think there is mostly a sample size issue there. We're talking about stats that are on the order of about 100 hands, so you would expect some level of deviation from the average. I'm not sure if the data as presented is enough to draw any meaningful conclusions in this area.

If you're talking about what I think you're talking about (#2 from an earlier post), then yes. I'm not yet convinced that these percentages are particularly meaningful. It might simply be a reflection of table conditions as opposed to any interesting strategic difference. I haven't thought of any reasonable way of interpreting the 4% or 8%.

130K hands total

Filter #1: 4456 hands @ -0.08 BB/hand, 15.19 VPIP
Filter #2: 234 hands @ 0.02 BB/hand, 100 VPIP

Computation #1: -356.48 BB with 677 VPIP hands
Computation #2: 4.68 BB with 234 VPIP hands

Computation #1 - Computation #2: -361.16 BB in 443 VPIP hands

Big blind: 4456 - 234 = 4222 hands

Big blind: -361.16 BB + (.5 BB/hand)*(4222 hands) = 1749.84 BB

Big blind: 1749.84 BB/4222 hands = 0.414 BB/hand @ 677/4222 = 16.03 VPIP

So... how do your stats look?

Like a bunch of nonsense. What the hell did I just do? Full analysis of my numbers, please.

Aaron,
Is there a conclusion to this?

Unfortunately, not really... at least not yet. I've thought through the numbers and the only good observations I have are the ones listed earlier in the thread.
