Re: I still find it hard to believe...
Yes, but short-term numbers for tens of thousands of randomly selected players are invariably going to converge on the true ratio. Everyone can't be on a winning streak every time we observe them.
We can make predictions about the entire population from watching a big enough sample.
Off course 95% of all players who sit down at a table with Brunson, Baldwin and Lederer are going to lose money. That doesn't make 95% of all poker players losers.
