It's a pretty good read, although I dont really grasp how exactly he got his edge % calculation. Basically all you need is a SQL database from your PokerTracker, and then there is some info in that thread that can show you by how much of a % you are beating the game.
Here's an example from Lyric's own database since he beats 5/10 at 1.78% (which is rather good even thou it sounds small). He states: Here is the expected variance for a 1.78% edge over 32K hands. None of these outcomes would be anything but completely ordinary for my edge/skill level. This is pretty sick considering 32K hands is about 10 months of playing live poker full time:
Note: The edge percentage is calculated using the total amount "bet," and but not necessarily put at risk. So it's not accurate in cases where you push all-in for $1,000 and your opponent only has $63 in front of him. In that case you'd still be counted as "risking" $1,000 when in fact you only risked $63. Not perfect, but a pretty fancy guess.
Pretty interesting stuff. So now I'm trying to figure out how I get mine. If you dont know who Lyric is, he's the guy who made DonkeyTest / The Poker IQ Test (http://www.donkeytest.com).
