tosr 0 Posted November 15, 2006 Share Posted November 15, 2006 I'm sure to lose soon, but so far I've been on a nice run at Stars. The first 7 were $20 and the last $50.. (I'm 9 wins out of my last 10 matches). I joined this week and it took me a while to adjust to the style, but now I'm enjoying myself.For you big sharks who win a fortune every hand, good luck to you.. but I'm a little fish and I'm stoked.

Flushgarden 0 Posted November 15, 2006 Share Posted November 15, 2006 I just tried one of these. I beat the first guy pretty easily, and then in the final the guy was a complete idiot...but he ended up beating me. lol I jumped out to a more than 2-1 chip advantage but after that he kept picking up hands, and he turned into a pushmonkey. After doubling him up in a race (I had the pp), on the final hand I had a set of jacks and he ended up rivering a straight with AQ. I cant play these things a lot because I'd always be on tilt.

offset 0 Posted November 16, 2006 Share Posted November 16, 2006 This is either a case of selective memory or complete bs. If you have an impossible win rate of 66% per heads up match there is a 0.001296 chance you will win 16 in a row. If you have a 60% chance of winning each heads up match (maybe not impossible, but very impressive) there is a 0.0002821 chance you will win 16 in a row. That means that one of the best players at this level will experience this kind of streak about once every 3,571 sets of 16 heads up matches. It is much more likely that the OP forgot about a few losses, thought he won a longer streak than he did, or is just making this up. Link to post Share on other sites
