How many hands a hour?

And you know this how, exactly?

You are possibly correct. But you certainly can't prove it.

Inattentiveness, fatigue, distractions, lack of concentration, unfamiliarity
with the game, drugs/alcohol, button errors, fuzzy screens, and many other
factors can also cause errors. Who can tell which factor is the cause of "most
errors?" I certainly can't!

When casino tracking software can count players' errors, you have access to
this information, and you can show that increased speed (for a particular
player) is directly correlated with increased errors, you may then tentatively
conclude what you asserted. And even then, you might be wrong.

I'll revise my statement: In my opinion, a good many errors by experienced and skilled players are due to speed. I am going to assume they know the correct strategy. Inattentiveness, fatigue, distractions, lack of concentration, , drugs/alcohol, button errors, fuzzy screens, and many other
factors can also cause errors, it is true, but many of these are caused or made worse by the speed factor.
