Default Re: Maximum streak/winning percentage?
Well, let me try it for a few reasonable #'s: a 1BB/hr. winner with a 10BB/sqrt(hr) SD, uniform 4 hr sessions. This player will win 57.9% of his sessions, so the chance he will win his next 5 is 6.5%.

Perhaps someone else can figure out longest streak for 100 (or whatever) sessions, but I'd guess 8.
