In Response To: What do you call that number? (phil Simborg)

To answer your question I don't think I've ever called it or needed to call it anything. You have your raw take point of 19.8% and your gammon adjusted take point of 27.8%. You need 27.8% wins to take and you estimate you win 30% of the time so to me the number you came up with is sort of backwards and serves no purpose.
