In Response To: Backgammon vs Poker bankroll calculations (Chuck Bower)

Standardizing in terms of hourly win rate and hourly SD seems like a better idea, but I'd need more data on that.

My table which could not be formatted correctly on this forum does this. I purposely compared 1 1/2 hours of backgammon with 1 1/2 hours of no limit and 1 1/2 hours of limit poker. I would like to send a copy of this table to Chuck Bower, Matt, and anybody else. I especially want Chuck to have a copy because the good professor is very statistically knowledgeable. Please send me your emails so that I can send you the table. I will email this to all who request.

Chuck, thanks for noticing and appreciating the details. The research does need your and other's review. I may have errored. It has already been noticed that the backgammon stats do not include rake, but the poker stats include rake. This omission was previously known. I chose not to compensate for rake because it appears that poker's bankroll requirements would still be much higher than backgammon.
