Play more hands? I'm guessing that's a 4k-5k hand sample. It'll even out eventually.

I have no interest in discussing strategy with a protege'. Your job is to remain quiet and listen. I have a very systematic approach that I will share with the right candidate and I promise that I will turn you into a force of nature and show you elements of the game of poker that you never knew existed.

My setometer is where it should be after 20k hands. It also tells you some other interesting stats. In hands that went to showdown I have had AA vs KK 8 times and won 7 and I have only had KK vs AA twice losing both.

This is mine over the last session and is a small sample and not as many hands as Trainers graph. I have flopped more sets than expected. If the blue bit is bigger than the red bit you have hit more sets than expected when holding PPs. Over Trainers sample he could of expected to hit 24 sets but has only flopped 16. Over my entire database the graph would be more or less split 50/50.

thank you.

so, what you are saying is the blue is what actually happened, and the red is what the math says should have happened.

in jym's case, he ran rather dry, and should expect to hit some sets to balance things out (mathematically speaking he should have hit around 24 sets). but, you ran hot, and may go into a dry spell.

am i following correctly?

That is correct. However the red is not what the math says should have happened. If blue is bigger than red you run hot, red bigger than blue is bad luck and if it is as maths says then the red and blue will be of equal size. Here is my graph of ~20k hands where it has evened out (although I am slightly luckier at flopping sets to date.

This prog should be used after a decent sample size to get a realistic view of how one is running. If you think you are poker god, check this thing out first...you probably are just running hot. If you are on a downswing check it out to see if you are just getting hit by bad luck or mostly just playing bad.

Good news Trainer, you have < 2% chance of running that bad with sets for that long. I'd like to know how many standard deviations that is, but I can't remember shit from statistics class.
Playing live . . . thanks alot Bin Laden.

That really depends on your average profit from sets, doesn't it?

Didn't we decide a long time ago, that the 15x rule was based on our average profit in sets? So I would think you can base it on the fact that calling a 4xBB raise to have 15:1 for a set would mean approx. 60BB's. Would this be reasonable? So even at 4 sets under expectation, would you not be running 240BB's under as well? This is all speculation, and if someone has other ideas, I would love to hear them.

theoretically this sounds right. in reality it depends heavily on each players ability to extract said 60bbs.

Since you need to use implied odds with NL instead of pot odds.

Yeah... I never got that memo. So if we buy in for 50bbs we have to fold 22-99 to a standard raise?

all those hands(esp 77-99) have more than set value

It calculates on flops seen w pocket pairs. From the download page "The first point to notice is that I was dealt a total of 1557 pocket pairs but only saw the flop 1042 times and flopped a Set 101 times. The graph on the right indicates that 101 was a relatively low figure given that we saw a flop 1042 times."

PPs where flop is not seen (either folded or uncalled raises) are not included in the calcs for the graph. It is purely worked out on flops seen with PPs versus sets flopped with those hands.

The Flop-a-setometer as well as PokerEV DO NOT demonstrate whether or not you are running well or poorly. There is soooooo much more to luck than what the current software calculates. You can run bad on sets, KK vs AA, all-in equity, yet STILL be running ridiculously hot. I've had PokerEV graphs that said I was running waaaaay above expectation, yet I was down in money simply because I was actually getting tons of other types of ill-luck.

These software do not account for being outflopped, not hitting draws and folding, being pushed out of pots due to other player actions, what of villian's range your bluffs are against, hitting hands vs certain players, etc. Hitting hands against donkeys instead of regs is so so so much more valuable than hitting more than your share of sets or aces or what have you in non-committed pots vs non-donkeys.
