    Default two quickies...

    i dont like sitting and figuring math. i will do the work, though, if someone can get me off the right start...

    1) no math required. but, in GT+ and PAHUD, what do the BB/100 mean...for the table? is that players sitting down and donating to the table? i have no common sense for that one, and havent ever seen it stated before, so i assume its not that important anyway...just curious.

    2) math required. i cant remember how to figure whether cbetting 1/2, 2/3, 3/4, psb is profitable. how many times, for each, do i need to be successful? i thought that 2/3 needed around 50% success to be profitable, but cant remember. help.

    thanks.

    I don't use software so I can't help you with #1. #2 is not so bad though. Basically, c-betting full pot needs to work 50% to break-even.

    example: pot is $10. cbet $10 and lose = you are down $10. Do it a second time and win = $10 profit, which means you are even overall.

    thats what i thought. i cbet about 2/3-3/4 usually, as i try to keep it the same for my draws and value bets on all streets. that said, i had it figured that i needed to fold villains off about 33% to 40% of the time to profit long term.

    i was about to ask you how your holiday was...but then realized you're canadian, and your "thanksgiving" was about a month ago. you mounties really need to get with the program, ya know?
