Also, you get the sickest value for your hands sometimes :)Fluff - Nutzbuster summed it all up. If you tell me what kinds of places they like, I'll make some recommendations. I tend to know more of the wine bar/nice restaurant places. I definitely suggest Greaswood Flats or Pinnacle Peak Patio for people that aren't from the southwest. Both cowboy bars with great food. (PPP is more touristy, GF very authentic)I also concur if they're outdoorsy at all I would hike Camelback Mtn, or if they're looking for a day trip go up to Sedona and hike/Mt bike/4wheel or something.Mark Link to post Share on other sites

Conclusion:1) Mark is a winning player with a huge certainty (ldo)2) At this winrate, apparently about 200 hours is more then enough to get a decent estimate of itNote the "at this winrate" in this last sentence: if your winrate would be lower, the standard deviation would roughly remain the same. Thus, if your winrate were only $10/hr, 200 hours would not be enough to determine it. (For math geeks: the standard deviation decreases with the square root of the number of hours, so to get it down to $10 or so, you would need more than 4 times as many hours.)Mark, it's probably not too hard to add some columns to your spreadsheet that calculate the standard deviation, so if you want to do that but don't know how, just drop me a pm.

NoSup4U 0 Posted March 16, 2009 Share Posted March 16, 2009 Weee, numbers!I calculated the standard deviation of Mark's results, and his winrate over 238 hours is $74.45 with a standard deviation of $23.22.That means that his true winrate is about 68% likely to be less than $23.22 away from $74.45 (so between $51.23 and $97.67), and about 95% likely to be less than 2 x $23.22 away (so between $28.01 and $ 120.89).

It's definitely good to know that with 95% certainty I can beat that game for at least $28/hr. That will be my baseline if I ever am where I have to quit poker and get a real job. If it doesn't pay $28/hr, I'm sticking with CAZ :)Mark Link to post Share on other sites
