Which basically proves why aggressive players like Gus Hansen are so effective. They play based on the idea that most of the time you wont hit. 65% of the time you dont connect....

This is the Data for AA not AKs... I am in the process of doing ALL hands (and just copied and pasted them)
SmileyHere Jul 12, 2007 2:24 am
The data is now for AKs as stated, but still incomplete
metsrule17p Jul 31, 2007 1:01 am
the odds for AKs vs 22 may be right in the calculator, but are not right according to one of doyle's books. he had a story in which he played 22 vs AKs straight up over a certain amount of hands and at the end 22 won a higher % of the time, so now who do u belive a computer or doyle
SmileyHere Jul 31, 2007 1:18 am

Doyle is correct. Here is why... AK will likely not see the river because of these bets. The showdown percentage, and the Apu data GARAUNTEES that AK will see the river, but if the 22 bets the flop, AK has only seen 3/5ths of the board, and may not continue. (may have hit on the turn or river though, if it had not folded due to a bet).

Notice that according to the APU ranks, AKs preforms better at a full table (ranked 4rth), and worse short handed (9th heads up)
SkyyCaptain Aug 4, 2007 7:20 pm
I believe the computer.

AK suited often bets the flop against 22 which WILL fold unless its hit a set or the flop is very very ragged. AK is better than 22 unless you're extremely passive.
SmileyHere Aug 4, 2007 7:49 pm

ok metsrule17p, I just re-read your comment and I have an answer that SHOULD clear this up.

First, betting matters, but you even eliminate that so...

Doyle's simulation that you mention, is a simulation...and if you tall the results,they will "approach" the Expected Value, assuming the trials were independant. In Fact, we can model how close we will get to this EV, based on a normal distribution... but it will likely NEVER be exact.

The EV's I have listed, are based on ALL possible boards... it is exhaustive, and it will provide EXACTLY the correct value. It is NOT based on simulation.

Consider flipping a coin...

Doyle might flip a coin 100 times, report that he got say 52 heads, and 48 tails (a likely outcome), and by simulation declare that heads has an EV of .52 and tails .48.

My algorthym more or less, splits all the likelyhoods of the events, H and T, and then divides by the count, and declares the answer: 1/2 = .50 Heads: .50, Tails .50... It is exact

Finally, the computer is correct in this case, however, you MUST consider that you must be in the hand to win, and if you fold on the flop, turn, or river, your probability of winning is ZERO, so betting matters,... but the computer is correct and Doyle is not wrong so much as a victum of "experimental error" and a lack of knowledge od statistics (otherwise he would have ensured that his number of trialswas great enough that his experimental mean was within acceptable closeness to the truth).

But that's just how I see it

metsrule17p Aug 4, 2007 9:12 pm
wow great job explaining everything, the human error thing is definatly true and great showing of an example with the heads tails thing, i would still prefer 22 heads up but thats just me i like being up preflop
