Another Frugal VP question

#1

Thanks to Harry for advice. I still have a question. I would like Frugal VP to deal me difficult hands similar to Hard Hand feature in Win Poker. I found the feature "Set Error Levels" in Frugal. I may be mistaken (it won't be the first time) but all this does is to enable you not to be flagged when you make a miniscule error. Or am I wrong in my thinking? So if I am wrong, how do I adjust the settings so I am dealt only difficult hands? This is what I see on the screen:
                  Set Error Levels:
                  Low 0
                  Low to Medium _5
                  Medium to Hi _25

Specifically, which and how should I change the above to produce this effect (i.e. to duplicate Win Poker's Hard Hand). Thank you.

Try the Option - "Setting return threshold" .You also have the ability to replay hands that you have gotten wrong.

What you describe is accessed through the Option Menu item "Set Error
Levels" and works very similarily to the WinPoker option "Training
Mode / Error Settings" -- allowing you to classify the severity of
strategy errors and set a threshold below which error messages aren't
produced for small errors.

The FVP option you appear to be seeking, however, is equivalent to
"Hard Hands" in WinPoker; it's "Set the Return Threshold" -- located
on the Option Menu right above "Set Error Levels". The use of this
function parallels the "Hard Hand" WinPoker function and you shouldn't
have any difficulty.

I need some answers. I fell in love with
Multi-Stike, played some on the internet, read Bob
Dancer's articles, not sure I understood everything.
  Almost enjoyed the 6 or 7 Benjamins I poured into to
the 9/5 (I think) 9/5 JOB at the Mirage:-)
   I have Frugal, added 6 to the pay tables for both 1
coin and 5 coin (on different occasions) for 9/6 JOB
and printed out the new strategy tables.
Interestingly, they had a lot less lines but two
unsuited high cards was still below a low pair. I
believed Dancer's reasoning (the stay alive principle)
that on the bottom two lines one should prefer two
high cards, unsuited to a low pair. What did I do
wrong?
