I have been tracking the numbers and it is definitive that the beats dealt out on Merge network are much more likely on Saturdays and Sundays. I play the same hands the same way, with obviously different results. And its not just that the calls are looser, its that they are more likely to draw out period. I have done the math on 7400 hands so far (I realize thats less than 1mill). My hands that were 60%+ won 55.73% on weekdays on average, and had a range between 52.48%-61.04% on respective weekdays. My hands that were 60%+ on weekends came in at 38.52% on average and was at its lowest on Saturdays at 32.87%. This seems pretty out of alignment with a reasonable amount of variance, and the consistantly streaky nature is dubious to say the least. Seems like a "bad play equalizer" to keep weekend depositers from going broke to the regulars who will obviously get them to put the money in bad almost every time. I have been experimenting a little with micro-buy-in open MTTs. Seems like when I play 'TAG' I get coolered quite often and it seems to increase in frequency near the bubble. When I play 'LAG' I hit miracle flops and float drawless in confidence that the turn and river will come runner runner in my favor. Seems the more I play like a optimistic noob the better I run. Ace rag seems to be nearly invincible as long as you call off your stack from behind to a monster pair or bigger ace.
