Default Re: ITS NOT THAT UNLIKELY (Stop with the weird rule misquotes)

Oh man, I knew there was a reason I didn't post much on this board. Aleo, someone else further up the thread posted such a rule, and I also saw a similar view on another thread a day or two ago. I wasn't referring to you at all at that point (the only time I was was when questioning how meaningful the 1/18000 number was).

For what it's worth, I agree 100% with everything you just said above, in particular that it's always best to consider that you may be playing badly, as I tried to make as clear as possible at the start and end of my original post. I just wanted to try to clarify the odds of such streaks a little, since some people were clearly interpreting your numbers in the wrong way.

Default Re: MOST out of the money in a ROW???

All this talk of losing streak made me go pull out my streaks spreadsheet and watch my mythical Excel player play thousands of SNGs.

If you've never played with this in Excel or have a strong grasp of statistics its probably hard for you to really accept what sort of losing streaks are possible for a winning player.

This is the unluckiest thread on the face of 2+2.

Immediately after reading it I'm OOTM in 26 of my last 30. With 2 seperate streaks of 10 OOTM's making up most of it.

*EDIT* - Not really any major bad plays, just horrible, horrible timing. For example, get on the bubble and I get JJ...only to be up against KK. Another favorite is the all in on the bubble with QQ getting called by 43o...a lovely flop of 567 falls.

LOL, I had a huge run of weird things like that in this last week.

I've gotten bubbled a few times this week by BBs waking up with kings when I push into them with trash. Someone needs to tell them to quit calling with those.

My profit graph now looks like I'm descending off of Mt. Everest. Essentially straight down with a few minor blips every so often.
