| Approximately how many games would you say I have to play before I can be pretty confident I'm a winner or not? |

| A friend told me 300 is enough but I ran a variance calculator over 1000 games and put in a roi of just above 5%, ran it 10 times and one of those times it was breakeven and one time it was loosing. |

Don't think 300 games is enough to prove anything to be honest. You may get a decent idea if you can beat the level you are playing, but I mean I have been on 700 game b/e stretches in the past, so guess you are looking at a couple of thousand games min, and even then, you wont have anything like any idea of a true winrate. _________________ "Cos that's what I do" |
