Default Re: a bit on game thoery

huh? you make you flush 9 times for every 36 tries

so if you are offering 9:1 and you chances of hitting are 25% so you should bluff an amount equivalent to 1/9th of 25% or 2.77% of the time you miss. so you should bet 27.77%
of 36 cards which is 9.9972 cards. 9 of which are flush cards and .9972 which are misses.

this is what I get from pg 174 & 175 of TTOP.

I was wondering if my interpolation was correct

9 good cards to 1 bad card to "make[ing] the odds against my bluffing identical to the odds my opponent would be getting from the pot" TTOP pg 172

I discounted the antes and bring in to make the query simpler. athough for most stud games the number of misses correctly bet would be *roughly* similar

just wandering
