Message: [QUOTE="Stu_Ungar, post: 1376248, member: 39779"] Its a terrible way to play! It causes people to chase losses, play longer when they are having off days and leads people into a results orientated mindset. Over large samples, your winrate becomes consistent. Therefore a better strategy would be to play a set length of time or set amount of hands per day. A non-poker example of how poor a strategy this is would be say an athlete attempting to break a world record. He has a training plan with set amounts of training and rest. If he performs poorly on a given day, he wouldn't train for a longer period as it would be counter productive. Likewise if he was having an exceptional training session, he wouldn't cut it short because he was doing better than expected at that point in time. [/QUOTE]
