boxcaral 0 Posted February 5, 2005 Share Posted February 5, 2005 Does anyone see any merit in playing at online rooms that do are not PokerTracker compatible?Using Financial records and hours logged in a Spreadsheet, I an a +3BB/hr winner in low limit Hold'em and $15-30 SnG's on line and B&M, and I do better in my local home games which tend to be on the loose-passive side :shock:. The sample for this ratio is data logged since 8/04.I don't use PokerTracker. I don't need PokerTracker to play winning poker, at least at the limits I currently play at. I keep some player notes and judge my success by the bottom line over the last 6 months. I do not judge my game based on the 68% JTs I laid down preflop on the BB to a one-bet. That is because I don't have a c3ns0r3d clue what any of my stats are, except for BB/Hr, and RoR, which I can calculate based on simple forumlae using the data from the aformentioned data.The reason for the post (I usually lurk :wink: - one learns far more when one is listening):When I played most frequently at sites PT-compatible sites, I was a far lesser player by my own measuring stick. I have moved (almost) exclusively to sites where hand histories are not grabbed, and I am doing far, far better while playing the same textbook poker.Givens:- This is a postulate...- The sample is far too small for any categorically acurate correlation...- The hero is an experienced, successful poker player who does not use PT or any similar hand analysis software....Primary Questions:- Can a positive correlation be ascertained between success playing poker online[/b] and playing at rooms which are not PT-compatible?- If so, can that difference be quantified?- Following that, how many hands should be sampled to establish or dissolve the aformentioned correlation?- Conversely, is there a demostrable edge to be found in playing on PT-compatible sites and using PT?- If any of the above claims are supportable, can someone back them up with personal or public information?Secondary Questions (these might be a little more discussable):- How much has Poker Tracker changed online poker?- Has anyone had similar experiences?Thanks!
