  If I am playing FP DDB (100.1% ) and playing perfectly, I can expect a
.1% positive return over the long long term, right? If say I am playing at 99%
accuracy, is that 1% subtracted from the 100.1% in terms of expected long
long term returns thereby giving me an expected return of 99.1%. I don't even
know if that question makes sense. It does in my head but I don't know if I
asked it correctly. I really like the feature on Bob Dance's software that
tells me my accuracy but I'll be darned if I have been able to score perfect
100% play over 1000+ hands. Thanks.

So you are playing the 10/6 version of DDB, which sort of is a Super version
of DDB.

So what error rate are you referencing? The percentage of hands you get
correct or the overall cost of goofing them up? These are two different animals.

Getting 99 out of a 100 hands right is pretty good, but ending up with a
return costing you 1% is not so good.

Are you using Bob Dancer Presents Winpoker (by Dean Zamzow version 6.05) or
the newer Bob Dancer/IGT product VPW?
