Re: OK, What am I missing here?
Imagine a game with 10 players. Every round 5 players are randomly selected to be winners, 5 losers. The winners all gain £10, the losers lose £11. After 1 round, PT type program would show 50% to be winners. After 3 rounds, there are guaranteed to be winners (I believe at least 4). After 20 games, it is still likely that there will be a couple of winners. However, in the long run 100% are losers. The same goes with poker - you don't have enough hands on all your players, you are nowhere near the long run, hence the discrepancy.
