Default Re: Game theory question.

That strategy will win 60% of the time. That is, you play 62/1,362 of your starting hands; and win 73% of the time when you play. I assumed a constant $10 ante, rather than blinds. It doesn't matter for the betting, and the blinds mean the loss from folding alternates between two vlaues, which makes the computation more complex.

Obviously you could do better by loosening up when you are behind (if you have your last ante in the pot, for example, you have to call on anything) and tightening up when you are ahead (if you have 199 antes, you can afford to wait for better cards).

My guess is you could do better playing a few more hands.
