coach belly, that is all you need for a real good start. Sometimes the truth hurts.

for an article I did in Gaming Today I did take a look at how often (session-wise) a player is ahead minimum 5 credits playing BP in a 6-level progression ($1/$2/$5/$10/$25/$100). It came out to between 95%-96% of the sessions.

My recollection is that Mission reached a similar conclusion, for a session of flat-betting 1000 hands of >97% VP.

MDawg didn't make any mathematical representation of his "vast majority" claim, it was anecdotal from his experience.
