thenoodleman: I guess I'm on tilt

http://www.sngicons.com/geeklog/blogs//article.php?story=20080517135133365#comments

Why??????? Make such a dufus blog entry???? OK, you've got variance on your side obviously for FIFTEEN GAMES. Dude, 15 games! Someone should tell you that's not a large sample size...in fact I just did. This is an unsubtly disguised brag post...but it's after FIFTEEN GAMES.

You can bet this is what happened. Noodleman plays a couple of sets, manages a large number of 2 and 3 outers all in preflop, and after only 20 games wants to jack off to his "dominating" profit graph. He's never been able to post one of these before because he's a breakeven player at best, so it's understanding he wants to try and join spacegravy with the large upswing graphs - after all, he taught him how to put it on the blog.

The difference is spacegravy has an average stake more than 3x thenoodleman's ($33s - what a joke). Secondly he shows the results after thousands of games, not 20. 20!!!! Still can't get over that. Well thenoodleman wants to enjoy life while variance is on his side, can't blame him really. He's unlikely to show his wonderful graph after a few hundred games, so here's my prediction after variance has had a chance to even itself out.


PS. Noodleman seems to be getting a LOT of haters recently, justifiably:

If only there were some sort of publicly available database that tracked tournament results... Perhaps some sort of scope that kept track of sharks.

If only such a thing existed, then we could see for sure how much noodleman is down over a sample size covering thousands and thousands of games.

Oh wait, its called sharkscope and he's up 20k. Its probably a fluke though.

lol@sharkscope People use this FREE "tool" as if it told the whole story. It is not that accurate and you'd be foolish to think it is.

Anyway, assuming it's tracked every game 100% correctly, 20k profit from 11k games is just miserable. There are quite a few people out there making HUNDREDS OF THOUSANDS of dollars in these games. 20k lifetime profit for a supposed "Icon" is terrible. I could barely live on that per month.

Sharkscope definitely misses some tourneys here and there, but they capture an overwhelming majority, something well above 95% for stars and tilt.

Even if sharkscope misses some games, there is no reason to believe that the games it misses are anything other than random. In which case, every game missed is another ~$2 that noodleman pocketed.

Besides, even if you are a paranoid tin foil hat wearing conspiracy theorist that actually believes sharkscope is somehow significantly distorted, then you have to take back all the times you yourself have referenced it as evidence against other icons.

You can't use sharkscoipe to damn wickss, FJ and z32fanatic then turn around and argue that noodleman's 10k SNG sample is somehow not valid proof that he is a winning player. It just proves that you are petty and ready to bash the icons simply for the mere fact that they are icons.

Whatever stalker. Noodleman was breaking even before you were born. He is a true ICON.

- Not sure what you are saying here. The guy has makes $1.82 per SNG on average, which is more or less breakeven poker. I haven't said anything else.

"It just proves that you are petty and ready to bash the icons simply for the mere fact that they are icons."

- If you think that making 20k LIFETIME makes you some kind of Icon, then you seriously need mental help. It's not a lot of money, and I pity anyone who thinks it it.

- Haha...noodlelover. You'll notice he has posted much much more frequently since I started this blog. The guy is trying to prove something, and failing miserably.

5% ROI isn't breakeven, its winning. If you can't understand that then you really aren't qualified to discuss SNGs at all.

is it 15 games or 20? u dont even stay consistent in the same post moron.

"5% ROI isn't breakeven, its winning. If you can't understand that then you really aren't qualified to discuss SNGs at all."

So if I crush the $0.10 games for 20% and "win" $2 a day I should call myself an SNG Icon because I'm surely a winning player. You've missed the point entirely, fool.

For those of you who are retarded and can't think for themselves, he posted a 20-game sample, within which 15 was of the winning variety. Sorry I thought this was obvious, I didn't account for the utter braindead people out there.

...not to mention the zillions of noodle-hater on this blog alone.
