Default Re: A short post on something I\'m doing these days

No hard feelings really, but I disagree pretty much 100%. I'd be very very very skeptical that you could "define how a guy plays" with 1k hands worth of observation better than by using 1k hands worth of data.

I'd also think it might be a bit more time effective to accumulate the data without having to observe. Though most of the sites I play I can only get information on hands I'm dealt in.

My point is that probabilistic thinking for me rules. you can't do sh!t for bayesian analysis with observation unless you are rainman squared.
