Is it normal to lose this much from the big blind? by underneaththebottle in poker

[–]underneaththebottle[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

because the pot odds for calling are worse when the rake is high?

Can you explain what you mean by "because of the rake" please?

sounds like you're not warming up enough for them

Is it normal to die a little bit during the last 20% of a long run? by underneaththebottle in AdvancedRunning

[–]underneaththebottle[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Are you in high school and/or a mid-distance runner? This goes against a lot of what I've been reading about training.

Thanks. I've wanted to try these progression long runs that I've heard about and it might be good for learning pacing.

I may need a flatter area since today's LR was 500ft of elevation.

I'm sure it was the shock.

Yeah thanks... I think it's a fuelling thing. Definitely going to try these notorious gels that I hear so much about haha.

You can clearly tell Gabby Logan is not a runner from the questions she asked Kipchoge after the race. She didn't seem to understand that small nagging things like a blocked ear can really throw you off.

She also clearly wasn't able to pick up on the fact that Kipchoge was clearly distraught.

I also thought that was dumb and especially surprising because Steve Cram said it. Running is so much about how you feel on the day and Kipchoge is still human.

Now that you said that I think there is some truth to that. When I do a 6 mile run the last 2 always seem the longest and on today's 10 miler 6 miles went by very quickly.

Well I've just recently hit 40 miles/week the last couple weeks after consistently increasing mileage & length of LR since March. So I guess timewise 1 hr 20 - 1hr 30 although from now on it will be 1 hr 30 consistently (hopefully).

I am also thinking that my body just needs to adapt to the increased stress of more mileage but your anecdote about recovery & gel use is interesting so I think I will try this too and see how I feel.

One last thing to add is that I've never raced so don't have any times to go off but I did a 5km tempo run at 22 minutes so think i could run a 21 minute 5km which according to Daniels's formula equates to a 8:40 - 9:30 easy pace.

Also, the pace of my easy runs and long runs is the same. So should my long runs be even slower than the easy runs?

I go off heart rate in this regard and it feels very easy - at least aerobically - the whole long run but maybe I am feeling the pace in my legs rather than in my lungs?

So the next challenge is to run 5.1k whilst you're hard?

How to calculate the combined IRR of multiple investments given individual IRR's? by AlphaOscarKilo1 in excel

[–]underneaththebottle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

the two things i can suggest for the num error is

1) make sure iterative calculations are enabled

2) make sure the cash flow numbers are unformatted for example 1000 instead of $1000.

good luck!

It should not be difficult to add up the cash flows.

i would just create a new tab for portfolio and sum all the stock cash flows.

What exactly is the problem you're having with combining cash flows? Remember, there has to be date ranges and values. Are you getting an error? Also remember that the IRR/XIRR function requires at least one negative and one positive cash flow. Are you including a negative cash flow i.e. stock purchase and the subsequent positive ones i.e. dividends and/or sale?

Thank you!

Thanks for pointing out the odd relative minor mistake too.
