Number of Winning Players
Current Roll: $11615
The sheer number of terrible players on party poker never ceases to amaze me. I wonder how many players on party poker actually make money. According to my PT database, 40% are winning players. This is absolutely meaningless since I don't have another player in my DB with even 1K hands.
There is no way that 40% of the players make money. In my experience of playing and watching other players, I suspect that at 2/4, the 15th percentile is the break even point, and about 85% are losing players in the long run. Does anyone have any differing opinions?
Hand of the day: I was in the BB with KQo. Two limpers in mid and late position. I bet the flop of K83 rainbow, one folds and I'm raised. The player that raised me is an ABC by the books player. I figured AK would have raised preflop, and a set would have raised me on the turn; I figure at worst it's a split pot. So I checkraise the turn...calls me down with KJ! Mark a few extra BBs for a great read!
