Griffey/Daven, I would agree with this statement if I were speaking to a beginner who is just getting on their feet, on the premise that redline winnings are maybe something that shouldn't be focused on when you are learning how to play the game. But realistically, and I mean know disrespect, but I believe the redline winnings is one of biggest, if not the biggest, indicator of post flop play.
In my personal opinion, the redline is equally as important as the blue line, and if each of them isn't given the correct amount of attention/improvement, then there is $$ left at the tables.
see picture of my graph that shows where my redline problems began, when they were resolved, and teh effect of my winrate (greenline)
** Note that the blue line showdown winnings is consistent all the way through, so there is no correlating loss of showdown value when my non-showdown improves.
You will see in the chart that I lost control of my redline for 10K hands, and it cost me just under 40 buy ins. You can also see that my winrate nearly doubled as soon as I stabilized the redline again.
give me your thoughts guys, im really interested in some discussion about this that isn't like the million pi$$ing contests we can read about re: redline winnings lol....Attachment 818
