    In Response to Re: Making the jump from small to big : Hi. Could you or Aussie09 who really understand these things help me. My ITM in 40.1% in a count of 3,946 games. I would appreciate if you could go through my stats and tell me what you think so I can try and improve areas of my game. For example, is a 40.1% ITM good stats wise or an indication im too passive? i.e. Dont 'go for the win' etc. Honest assesment would be appreciated. Thanks.

    I'm sure Aussie will give you some facts Craig, but what that highlighted part tells us is that stats are misleading - by any normal criteria of measurement, over a sensible sample size, you cannot be ITM in MTT's 40.1% of the time.

    Your SS stats say
     
    ITM - 40.1%

    Middle/Late finishes (last 20% of the field) - 19.2%

    So, on the face of it, those two stats are not reconcilable. They can't both be right by the criteria by which we would understand them. And in poker player speak, you simply can't be ITM 40% of the time.

    hi craig,

    we did your Hero Card just recently  it is updated every day.  so for all of the 7,233 major tournaments this year, up to and including last night, you have the following results.

    you have played 239
    won 2 (1%)
    cashed in 31, which means you are in the money (ITM) 13% of the time.
    you have 12 final tables (5%)
    bubbled once
    you have 60 top quarter finshes (25%)
    you have taken 326 heads which is 1.4 per game and is your highest ranking KPI
    you have an average points per game of 0.3
    you have an ROI of 24% from BI of £1,764


    Sharkscope figures are not as focussed as my figures.  I like to look at the major games as this allows us to benchmark performance and to intepret them more accurately. 

    SS figures could easily mislead you.  As, in fact, they have.

    I see that your figures are good.  If I were to interpret the figures and tweak the way you make decisions in your play there are a couple of numbers that indicate an area where change might be fruitful.  Without spending another hour to investigate further I would say that you need to become more of a "Wolf in Sheep's Clothing"


    Good luck.

    Rob.

    i did RicOrford's Hero Card earlier this year as he had asked.  The outcome was incredibly revealing.  You can see the posts in his thread.  The figures were extremely meaningful and lead to suggesting a tweak or two.  I haven't done the analysis but I am certain that Richard's last six months are very different.

    Sharkscope counts you as being ITM if you take one or more head-prizes in a Bounty Hunter. Even if you bust before the money bubble. This explains why bounty regulars have seemingly impossible ITM percentages.

    hi bowl,

    i have just received your email and will create your Hero Card on your own webpage at 10am.  i reckon it should be quite good from what i know of you.

    Keep going Henry you will do it. Satting in is the best way to give experience. I've been lucky enough to sat into quite a few higher stakes games. I do ok and I hold my own against the bigger boys, just gives me that confidence I lack and makes me think about things and really ups my game a lot. Good luck in making the jump.
