The Research
Nov. 25th, 2006 07:27 pmGawd, this research is hard-bloody-work.
I decided that, if I was going to play these stupid freeroll points-spending tournaments, it would be a good excuse to do some analysis of my Full Tilt game at the same time. This is a slow process. I've put in three hours, and I've scratched the surface of one small area.
I noticed that, although my win rate in the non-blind areas wasn't exactly stellar, neither was it disappointing. It was my Small Blind and Big Blind performances that were worse than I would wish. Clearly, if you are nine-handed, a relatively bad performance in the blinds will have a 10% greater effect than if you are 10-handed. So, I had to work out how to improve my performance in the blinds, which was currently clocking along at minus 0.14 BB per hand in the SB and minus 0.25BB per hand in the BB.
( More, and a bit on brain damage )
