one of my homies today asked me to imagine what jameis might say to dart about all this. i said “anything is on the board.”
here’s the board. as you can see, i was correct.
I’m all for less numbers during poker broadcasts but wondering if the poker stats were more easily understood like NFL stats - more player specific - and not taken directly from poker solvers - could it help increase viewership and grow the game?
Instead of highlighting the action percentages (winning hand %’s), why not highlight the players’ activity? This could help build characters and viewer interest.
Y’all know how much I love my “optional players”, could these transpositions like these help acquire more of them?
Change “VPIP” to “Action Rate” - indicates how active players are but just more easily understood term
“Clutch Win Rate” - indicates how often a player wins the biggest pots they are in
“Pressure Index” - indicates how often a player is 3betting or putting in extra bets - kind of an aggression meter
“Hands Won Per Hour” - indicates action and winnings
“Showdown Success” - indicates how often they win at showdown
“Steal Success” - indicates how often a player is winning the blinds from late position
“Hero Call Frequency” - indicates how often a player calls and wins with a marginal hand
“Bluffing Rate” - indicates how often a player bluffs
Could transposing the player’s gaming action (like completed passes or TD’s in the NFL) instead of relying on the personalities/antics of the players/commentators/influencers, could be an easier viewer conversion for someone new to poker? @PokerGO@PokerStars@franciiiiine@Sdavies22@JasonKoon
If you love poker or care about poker’s future at all..
I need you to take ten minutes and watch this video and tell everyone.
The @WPT, @WSOP, @PokerGO, @PokerNews, @pokerorg, and @ClubWPT are in a slow decline
They need your help…
Poker needs more alphas.
The percentage of physically fit alpha males and females seems to drop every tournament, along with prize pools and guarantees.
People want to see more bad asses, and less Deebs.
Do a “Poker Alpha” tournament and watch what happens to the field size.
Changing and improving your life requires you to destroy a part of yourself and replace it with a newer, better part of yourself.
Therefore, growth is, by definition, painful.
These few NBA seasons have played out like a @Dom_2k simulation, what a time to be alive
2019: Reigning dynasty loses to injury, Kawhi gets one with a different team
2020: Lakers tie for most titles, Lebron gets one with his 3rd team
2021: Giannis gets one, CP3 gets close
2022: Warriors dynasty last stand, Curry finally gets a Finals MVP
2023: Jokic gets one, Heat continue to show up at unexpected, yet expected times
2024: Celtics finally get one, Brown wins FMVP
Fresh off graduating from @CommishPod University, I’m ready to commission my first dynasty league, drafting on 7/8 - DM me for the link to the bylaws if you're interested!
12 team, Superflex, PPR, 2x TE premium, monthly league events in-season, home league vibe.
Completed binging 91 episodes of @CommishPod - I have my diploma and I’m now ready to make sure I don’t let my friends down as the commissioner of our dynasty league 😅🎓 Thanks @ScottFish24@RyanMc23 !!
