The experiment is over. The results are in.
Yes, it was fun, but it was boring as well.
Two inherent faults with playing this way, and they are the worst faults a player could have (in my opinion): you have no control on when you can or cannot bet, nor can you control how much to bet.
In the hours spent playing I had two straight flushes (one K high, the other 9 high) and won $64 on the first and $102 on the second (pot amounts). The losses far outweighed the wins, or i would still be doing it.
More important, and the main reason for this experiment, was to watch others and to see what hands they would bet on and how much. (By playing like this, i didnt have to think about having to bet or was my hand better, etc.) It was an eye opener, I can assure you.
While interesting and informative, unless you are extremely lucky, this method is exactly what I called it. And holy crap, do you go through the chips fast.
I'm done, and done in. |
