Healy, T(imothy) M(ichael) (sh) and Variance - Poker (gambling)


Healy, T(imothy) M(ichael) (sh)




born May 17, 1855, Bantry, County Cork, Ire.
died March 26, 1931, Dublin

Irish political leader.

Soon after he entered Parliament in 1880, the "Healy Clause" of the Land Act of 1881, protecting tenant farmers' agrarian improvements from rent increases, made him popular in Ireland. Long associated with Charles Stewart Parnell, he broke with him in 1886. He grew dissatisfied with both the Liberals and the Irish Nationalists in the wake of the 1916 Easter Rising, and after 1917 he supported Sinn Fein. He was supported by both the British and Irish ministries as governor-General (1922-28) of the new Irish Free State.


Variance - Poker (gambling)


Variance is the statistical measure of just how widely your results will be dispersed. If you have a sufficient advantage at the game you' re playing, you expect to make money over the long haul. This is true whether the game is Poker, blackjack, or craps, and whether your advantage is due to skill, cheating, or psychic powers.
