Re: Are Winrates Normally Distributed?

It looks pretty close to normal here, but I think the way you did the sampling is not quite right.
You need to draw random samples from the total group of hands. Chopping them up into blocks is easier, but not appropriate. The way you have done it, we might find a different results using a different database.

You probably want to draw largish random blocks of hands to randomize position as much as possible between the samples.

OK, I figured out a way to do this in SPSS. I thought the data file would crash my computer but it doesn't
I have a data file with the amount I won/lost for 164,724 hands at 15/30. My win rate over these hands is a pitiful 1.13BB/100.
How large should the samples be and how many should I pull? I was thinking of selecting 10,000 samples of 1000 hands each.
Then I can I plot them and get the skewness, kurtosis, etc.
