Re(1): #39 - Hot streaks/cold streaks: How long do they last?

From personal experience, cold streaks last a long time. OH.....you mean hot and cold streaks for the PLAYERS!!!

I'm with you on this issue, Tiger. I prefer not to bet on a guy who has been slumping until he shows me that the slump is over. A run of poor performance often has an underlying cause. It could be a minor injury, it could be a bad shipment of cestas, it could be stress in a player's personal life.....but whatever the reason, I like to see that the slump is over before I plunk my money down.

It's worth mentioning here that as much as I prefer Dania over Miami, one area in which Miami trumps Dania is that Miami's program pages give each player's stats for the last ten performances, while Dania's program pages do not. I appreciate having that info in the program, especially if I haven't had the chance to watch much during the week prior to the performance I'm betting.
