Re: Accuracy of small samples (for opponents)
I concur with the previous posters.
Bad players will reveal themselves after relatively few hands.
It is waaay more likely that those small sample sizes for a suspected fishy actually mean a fish than a TAG who is getting a good run of cards. This is especially true at the nanos and micros.
oh and one Showed down hand for a fish can be golden...when he/she cold calls with J8 you note that and proceed to take his money. when he calls down with 3rd pair and makes trips on the river (at someone else's expense) thats gold too.
oh and Eeegah will tell tou that when a player sits with 10BB you can almost certainly assume he is bad. Thats quite possibly the best read of all cos it doesnt require any hands at all.....just watch out for 2+2ers on 15BB challenges. theyll be your exception [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]
