Re: Get to showdown more? Prove it.

For example:
.32 x .54 = .1728. 17.28% of the time when you play a hand you get to showdown and win.
How about 36% SD% but only 50% W$SD (which is close to my stats, so this is where I'm getting it from)
.36 x .50 = .18 When I play a hand I take it to showdown and win 18% of the time or so. 0.7% adds up over tens of thousands of hands.

this math is bogus. if you are only dealt winning hands 20% of the time, it is much better to have a 20% SD% and a 100% W$SD, than vice versa. according to your equations, those two stat lines come out the same.
in your example, assuming your playing styles are the same, you're adding in 0.7% of hands where you win a pot, but 3.3% where you lose a pot. you should still come out ahead, but not by nearly as much as you suggest.
