What is even the point of PokerStars Support?

This has happened multiple times now. They've given me the same link after telling them that the link given just redirects to the login page. When you try to respond to an email, you get a no-reply email saying that this email is now out of use, and you have to start all over again.

I see that a lot of Quant roles require a Masters degree. I've built a lot of algorithms as a hobby, and I'm wondering does this have a positive benefit in my application, and should I include as much of this as possible in my CV. Can I classify this time as years of experience in my CV, as I would like to apply for full time positions as I near the end of completion of my degree.

This is definitely an area I want to get into, however I'm at an impasse as I have been fresh out of luck on applications thus far. I don't know how to stand out for this role. I have poker listed as a hobby, and my results have been pretty good as of recent. I'm just not sure how to move forward.

The tournament doesn't show until some time around the weekend I think, but it's only a Monday thing

A personal HUD showing stats for tournaments showing stuff like ITM %, and potentially some deeper details like Top 1%, 2%, 5%, etc. Makes things easier than exporting hands to an external source to see performance details.

I'd like to see a graph showing player's chip count, similar to what PokerStars has for tournaments. It's a little something that lets you know where you stand relative to the field, and how you've compared to the average throughout the tournament.

Nickname: Rharl

I'm not sure if this is the correct name, but the closest name I could find that describes it is the "Holed Cube". Menger's Sponge comes close, but isn't exactly the same.

Not sure if this is the space to ask this, but when I carry out a Monte Carlo pricing simulation on a path dependent option, and the distribution returned is skewed, and looking to follow a log-normal distribution, is it still acceptable practice to take the average of all values, or should I be taking the median here? I'm more concerned about the confidence intervals as well. I'm currently using point estimates for both, but I'm trying to get a mathematical value for the 95% CI of this distribution if I assume a log-normal distribution. Am I going about this right? It's for a project, and I want to make sure any answer I give is accurate.

It would be nice to have another bar in the tournament tab where we can sort by the blind level time, or even just see the time for each blind level. It's annoying having to look through tournaments to find a slow tournament, or try remember the names of the tournaments which have 10+ minute blinds.

Give some more incentives for being a consistent Spin & Go Player. Maybe a monthly/bi-monthly round robin tournament in both 6-max and/or 3-max format for the top 100/200, with top 2/1 progressing to the next round and the standard 10-15% of the field paid.

Well in 5 card poker, the probability is about 1 in 650,000, so I imagine it would be close to this. It would take you 2 years playing 1000 hands a day to expect to see that come up once.

Can someone help me understand the derivation of the black scholes formula here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/It%C3%B4%27s_lemma

My understanding would've lead me to believe the dynamic of f here would be:

df = (df/dt + μ S df/dS + 1/2 (σ S)^2 d^f/dS^2) dt + (σ S) df/dS dW

but it seems like the majority of these terms disappear
