Default What to blame?



This is my finish distribution for the last 500 tournaments. There are a few leaks that I plugged already, and others that I still need to take care of.

So...

I have similar ITM stats lately which I really think is due to short stack bubble battles.

Sample size is too small, I am honestly thinking that 1,000 is the bare minimum for making conclusions from. I just did 1000 at 7% and another set of 1000 at 27% (higher level).

itm % looks good, about 41 right? Very nice.

I concur that 500 tourneys are a very small sample. Play another 500 and don't think too much [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

(I voted for itm play by the way, I have no clue but maybe you don't push enough heads up? The Daliman experiment seems to advocate a looooot of pushing...)

I voted other.

I think the way you increase your first/seconds (I view these as coinflips) is by some battles earlier. I think that the way you fix this is by increasing your 5th and 6th place finishes, and increasing your 1st and 2nds. Hopefully, mathematically at least, your ITM % will stay similar.

Yeah, that's what I meant by passive early play.
