my eyes are getting blurry

2019-01-01 00:29:44 UTC  

let me ask you this

2019-01-01 00:29:54 UTC  

it won't seem relevant, but I'm curious how you'll asnwer

2019-01-01 00:29:59 UTC  

ok

2019-01-01 00:30:02 UTC  

Do you ever play poker?

2019-01-01 00:30:24 UTC  

last time was 2 hours ago, but it feels just like yesterday

2019-01-01 00:30:38 UTC  

How conservatively do you bet?

2019-01-01 00:30:47 UTC  

I get where your'e going with this

2019-01-01 00:30:59 UTC  

you're tellng me you make your decision based on expected value

2019-01-01 00:31:26 UTC  

however, you don't know what the deck is made of here, as the science isn't there yet

2019-01-01 00:31:35 UTC  

and , the variance is too large

2019-01-01 00:31:42 UTC  

Well, how do you play, though

2019-01-01 00:32:11 UTC  

I don't bet according to my psychological risk aversion, whatever it is

2019-01-01 00:32:16 UTC  

at least, I try not to

2019-01-01 00:33:17 UTC  

I folllow basic guidelines which are there to give me a sufficient probability to not go broke, given that I make +EV decisions

2019-01-01 00:33:38 UTC  

i.e 500th of my bankroll on a MTT

2019-01-01 00:33:50 UTC  

maybe 100th on a cash game

2019-01-01 00:34:27 UTC  

I don't know if you're familair with those terms

2019-01-01 00:34:33 UTC  

I'm a regular poker player

2019-01-01 00:34:47 UTC  

Can't say I'm an avid player

2019-01-01 00:35:00 UTC  

I was just curious how risk averse you were

2019-01-01 00:35:45 UTC  

everything is calculated before hand, so that the main decisions aren't up to my risk aversion

2019-01-01 00:35:52 UTC  

the one from my psyche

2019-01-01 00:36:06 UTC  

of course, I sometimes face boundary decisions within game

2019-01-01 00:36:16 UTC  

and at that point my natural risk aversion kicks in

2019-01-01 00:36:51 UTC  

but they don't happen often enough for me to be able to answer your question

2019-01-01 00:37:02 UTC  

If you don't mind me asking, about how old are you?

2019-01-01 00:37:27 UTC  

I'm a millenial according to most memes

2019-01-01 00:37:34 UTC  

but an older millenial

2019-01-01 00:37:51 UTC  

I see

2019-01-01 00:37:55 UTC  

you?

2019-01-01 00:38:16 UTC

2019-01-01 00:38:22 UTC  

*

2019-01-01 00:38:24 UTC  

ok

2019-01-01 00:39:33 UTC  

you a millenial

2019-01-01 00:39:46 UTC  

No Gen Z or as we say in the UK Gen X is older than 20 years old

2019-01-01 00:39:55 UTC  

even 18 years old

2019-01-01 00:40:07 UTC  

I've seen some metrics where the cutoff is pre-1999

2019-01-01 00:40:33 UTC  

but I tend to agree with you

2019-01-01 00:48:42 UTC  

the problem is

2019-01-01 00:48:52 UTC  

that due to insane tech stuff
