Default Re: continuing 300 Bb thread

[ QUOTE ]
but i find your arguements moot if math wise we can put 1.0bb/100h and 19h/100 SD into formula watch the results of a 300bb downstreak.

I think what Ray is trying to say is that a good player usually has a big enough edge that 300BB losing streak is unlikely (maybe that means a 2BB/100h winrate). This means a "good" player has a higher BB/100h win rate. So when the losing streak happens it because our play changed or the games got tougher, or as the math guy would say the winrate changed.

As winrates go up, risk of ruin goes down. So when we hit a long losing streak it might be we are unlucky, but it is more likely that our winrate is less or we aren't as good.
