Re: \'The System\' improvements?

1) Duh.
2) Well, in WSOP today you'd be called plenty of times by crappy hands. The 2,000 or so dead money players would love to call you... I guess one could argue that it would have been good before the poker boom, but we'll never know, will we?
3) Yes, obviously one can wait through the early rounds. But if you do the math for the pushes 54s on the button when it's folded is correct according to the system.
4) Duh.
There still should be a way to figure out the math for an optimal all-in strategy. Yes, it would be worse than optimal real play, but by how much?

I think like the poster above said you applied a system to something it wasn't designed for, thus you can't say it's broken. Further, there is an optimal mathematical strategy for all-in situations, but that doesn't mean it's 100% full-proof. In other words, if you have a mathematically correct situation to push all-in with 45s on the button and get called by aces, that doesn't mean the math wasn't wrong, that means you ran into a better hand and over the course of 20 tournaments (which is a statistically insigifagant sample) that will happen.
Oh, and one other thing, the original system was not the same as the one you are using. The one you are using is David's modified system which is mathematically optimal.
