Where pokerhorse is going wrong.
Pokerhorse is trying to say that no matter how many hand you play in three months you do not have any confidence in the results for the next month.
The problem with his theory is that even though the sample size is small (in terms of months) the standard deviation in $$ earned/month over a months time gets smaller as you play more hands in each of those months. Orange

Re: Where pokerhorse is going wrong.
Actually, where is going wrong is asserting that a meaningful winrate is a function of the amount of time taken to play x number of hands when all that matter is just x.
Sorry if your post was meant to be satirical because I didn't pick up on it.

Re: Where pokerhorse is going wrong.
He is thinking $$/month and we all think $$/hand. What he fails to realize that for a B&M player only getting 4800 hands/month the stdev of his $$$/month will be much higher than an online player getting 25,000 hands. i.e. B&M player may have an average monthly win of $1000 and a stdev of $300 Online player may have average win of $4000 and a stdev of $300. Now after a couple months - B&M player cannot be sure if he is a winner or loser because the stdev/ave ratio - online player on the other hand can have a much higher confidence in his reults because they are inherently more consistent because of the high number of hands. Nothing satirical.

Re: astroglide/ question for you
this is a tough call. but pokerhorse's continued insistance that he is correct gives him the edge over airopaneguy and ghostbuster imo.
although pokerhorse was certainly more polite then the other two. man, i just can't decide.
