If I play for a week and end up £30 down/up but my sharkscope says different then it will show it is not correct.
This can be done over 10 games if necessary.
I still stand by my original statement and if my overall profit in dollars is correct then i'm never going to the states on holiday.
Have looked and changed this to pounds and can assure you it still is incorrect quite substantially.
On the end of the bar where you enter details and site make sure you always have the same graph criteria, I:E Sit n go's only, all games, multi table tournament etc
This has happened to me but whenever I have changed this the results have ALWAYS being valid and consistent. Don't know why people have such trouble with it but I have never had a problem.
Hope this helps.
I have my browser set for 'clear history on exit' and delete cookies at least weekly. Does this mean that to get accurate stats i shouldn't?
Sharkscope is fine anyway... just accept it if your a losing player and try to improve.
The issue I originally raised was that after playing 250+ games it showed a ROI of about 12% but then after another 20 or so games this had dropped to 5%. This is not possible. Even if I had stayed level on the week, i would have expected a slight drop in the roi as yes i had played more games but for no more return but after playing 20 £3.30 games staking £66.00 I had a return of £78.00 (approx figures, granted, I will keep a more accurate record next week). This is about a 15% return so as my games had gone up by 10% (ish) and my ROI had stayed the same (ish) then I fully expected my total ROI to stay the same, not drop by 7%.
It had also changed my roi graph from +15% for my catagory of game to -5%. again impossible seeing as i am virtually exclusive to playing £3.30 games. And again, purely over 1 week.
So to sum up, Sharkscope has me as being -15% for the games i play 90% of the time but overall +5% as i play the odd micro stakes game.
Does this make sense anywhere????
If so I would need to play 15 or so 30p games to play one £3.30 and feed my addiction to these highly damaging games (according to sharkscope anyway)
This makes absoulutely no sense to me at all.
If you play cash, sharkscope is pretty irrelevant as it doesn't show those results.
For some fun here are some quotes on the use and relevance of statistics:
Torture numbers, and they'll confess to anything. ~Gregg Easterbrook
98% of all statistics are made up. ~Author Unknown
Statistics are like bikinis. What they reveal is suggestive, but what they conceal is vital. ~Aaron Levenstein
Say you were standing with one foot in the oven and one foot in an ice bucket. According to the percentage people, you should be perfectly comfortable. ~Bobby Bragan, 1963
Statistics can be made to prove anything - even the truth. ~Author Unknown
Statistics are human beings with the tears wiped off. ~Paul Brodeur, Outrageous Misconduct
He uses statistics as a drunken man uses lampposts - for support rather than for illumination. ~Andrew Lang
