a few extra stats

I know its possible to have a bad run this long. However it makes more sense to assume I have at least 1-2 major leaks. Lets help me fix them in hopes it can make everyone here a better player.

It's clear to me that 861 SnG's do not constitute a statistically-relevant sample. Additionally, your failure to calculate the various %'s to four decimal places cause the validity of the entire exercise to be highly suspect. I had the chance to chat with Sklansky/Asimov/Teller/Irieguy about this and they have validated my review. Sadly, one of my fellows (anon to save possible embarrassment in a cocktail setting) observed that the player, in question, "Stinks on Ice" /images/graemlins/blush.gif

if I add the 643 from 11/04-12/04 the stats get worse.

I was 11.13% roi for those.

Adding them together you get 1504 SnGs.(WOW was I close when I estimated 1500 in another post)

I didnt include them because some of those hands were 8tabling, and that PT database was closed. I opened it up to have the look see.

Some of my stats were lost in a Hardrive loss, but not all.

My 567 I do have from july-oct were much better, but smaller sample size. My VPIP is higher there in the early stages, but so is my % won at showdown.

You seem a bit too tight in the first round (10-15). Maybe you aren't playing pocket pairs in profitable situations?

[stupidsucker]

up until the last week I played every PP in every position if I could limp.

My standards as just like i said
AK and pairs. I started tightening up in early position with pairs, I found that I normaly had to fold them to a raise.

[stupidsucker]

ok no more bad beat shiit talk from me. I am starting to annoy myself.

Yes im getting unlucky
yes I also have other issues to deal with
Yes it sucks
Yes I broke things

Yes it will be fine in the end


I will be posting some HHs though. sifting through some hands can help us all. complaining about bad luck no matter how bad it is, or unreal it seems doesnt get anyone anywhere....

one more ARRRRRGGGHHHHHHH for the road

ARRRRRRGGGHHHHHHHHHHHHH I hate poker.

lets move on(forward)


EDIT incredible... as I click this post to finish it out I push with A9o from the SB BB calls with A9s hits runner runner flush to criple me. I push with Q5 next hand to make my final attempt. BB calls with J9s and makes runner runner flush after I flop my Q.. I laughed so hard , but now I want to cry.

Its obviously my bad play, and I must deserve this 12% roi.

This is NOT his problem. It's not even close based on what he's been saying.

stupidsucker, i feel your unlucky bad runs. over my first 750 50+5s i had 20.5% roi, and over my next 250, i had -4% roi. variance? yea prolly, bad play? i like to think not as i review almost all of my histories to make sure i wasnt screwing up. just lost about every coinflip i was in. 850 is NOT a big enough sample, this i know for sure. 2k i think is good. but even at 2k, you can have a good run and your roi could jump 3% in a matter of 50 tourneys. keep playing, it will turn around.
