Re: Is this game +EV/-EV???
Hmmmm... I generally figure 20 BB/100 (including rake) is crushing a game, 10 BB/100 is doing pretty well. You play around 100 hands in 3 hours. So, at a 1/2, 20 BB/100 translates to $13 per hour, 10...

Re: Mathematical models
Here's a link to a first draft. In the meantime, I've finished my definition of value, and hopefully that will be available on the web soon. This gets most of the machinery needed out of the way, but...

Re: Mathematical models
Hmmmm... that's sort of what I'm trying to do, but in a sense less ambitious. Let's say we're sitting at a table with 9 players. Each has a PSF given. Now, given the PSFs of everyone else, you could...

Yeah, that's what kept coming up on that link the first guy gave. It looks like they're the closest, although they're doing it more from an AI standpoint--which has lots of overlaps with what I'm...

Re: Mathematical models
Hey, thx! I'll check those out and see if there's anything similar.
Actually, I'd also be more than happy to post the model, but it's already 35 pages single-spaced in a Word file including LOTS...

Mathematical models
I've been messing around lately trying to develop a very explicit model of NLHE (simply because that's the game I play) as a stochastic process and just wondered if anyone knew of anything already...

Re: 2/4 KK Ace falls on river.
I really agree with you here, Ryan, but I see them do it all the time. More typical would be a QQ flat call, but I think if you make it $200, you're in too deep to give him credit for AA. I just...

Re: 2/4 KK Ace falls on river.
I think there are several ways to play this hand.
1) This guy is by my standards a pretty loose raiser, so I don't object to making it something like $200 PF with the intention of calling an...

Re: The Nuts and a tough 2/4 river decision
Well, the only reason I would have probably just flat called that particular flop (as you did) rather than making a strong raise as continuation bet/semi-bluff was the possibility that SB might have...

Re: Harrington on 22
Very good points, which I think also point in the tournament direction. I at least find this kind of PF aggression much more common in tournaments than in cash games, where a re-raise usually does...

Interesting quote
Actually, I think we're both wrong regarding Aristotlelian views. It looks like he did see a difference in speed due to the medium, but he also did think heavier bodies fall faster:

Re: Any Aristotle Fans out There?
Do you know where he said this? I'm assuming it's somewhere in his Physics (rough direction would be sufficient for me to look it up, not necessarily an exact spot, although it you have that, better...

Harrington on 22
I've been reading back and forth in Harrington's 2-volumes and ran across one note that I found rather shocking--namely not playing 22 to a raise.
I should perhaps add that I'm playing mainly cash...

Re: Trouble with late game aggressiveness
No way to limp here for sure. I absolutely HATE getting down that far relative to the blinds, too. So, first (I will say that I only play on Stars, so I don't know how these things go), it would have...

Re: preflop with KQs
Yes, I really think you make the most important points here. These really can't be good players, all limping with the blinds at that level. I think you should have enough time (although not a whole...

Re: preflop with KQs
That's a weird one. I actually think I'd fold. It seems to me like you're effectively doing the same thing as pushing with KQs UTG at this table, and it just wouldn't be a strong enough hand for me...

Re: couple of decisions for discussion
What I don't like about this move is that you give your opponents some very favorable implied odds: You have AQ and put in 600. Ok, now you're pot committed. Let's say a big stack in LP is sitting on...

Approximate general solution
In the game with $1 dead money and $5 stacks, I made the following simplifying assumption:
If A (UTG) moves in at a, then anyone at the table will call the all-in with the top half of A's raising...
