Bb/100 & poker tracker stats

    I have been using poker tracker for the last 3 months and it is a very good tool. But I am wondering what my stats are like and what sort of BB/100 is good and what you should be aiming for?
    I am playing .25/.5 and I am running well enough, I have been through an incredible week where I have been making a lot playing for only 1.5 hours each day on average and just wanted to know how sustainable this figure is.

    Also if I put up my stats would anyone be able to make an analysis on them just to see where I can improve my game and how I would be rated in your mind? Fish, LAG, TAG, passive etc..

    as far as i can remember the stats i had on u said u were loose passive.

    5/100+ is pretty goot.

    Positive numbers are best. 4-8 ptBB/100 is probably what most long term winning players make at their level.

    Stick up your stats and some peops will probably comment.

    Is the general info enough or should I put up the stats from the MORE DETAIL on the general info page? Do i need to put my top winning hands and losing hands?

    If you can post a screenshot of the first page and your positional stats page then that would be loads.

    Put up the general and the positional, maybe the more detail stats will be useful too. I'm no expert on interpruting stats and I'm yet to meet one. The whole issue of optimising your play by looking at stats or playing to formulas is a very very difficult thing to so, hense no great computer bots.
    Some players will have a 30%VPIP, 9%PRF and AF of 4 and be big winners and others will win at the same rate with a 20%VPIP, 16%PFR and AF of 1.9. And others will have the same VPIP and PFR and be big loosers.

    All the same, your stats may give an indication if there are any major leaks in your game. And discussing them will help everyone think about their game which can only be a good thing.

    Well I have attached my stats. One set is from when I was on GJP and the other is from this week on PPP. The thing about them is there is probably not enough hands in them, I only started playing on PPP last Friday so I have 1.5k hands and to be honest I dont think I could ever sustain these stats either. Im running way to well this week :D but not complaining either.

    what's up with having 8 positions in the first stats?

    too loose pf, and you don't raise enough pf, post flop aggression is good.

    2 hands played at a full table the rest played 6 handed I am guessing

    Im not to sure about that either. Maybe I sat into a 9 table at some stage and then left quickly. Who knows its a bit weird looking.

    Are these similar to the stats you have on me? I do remember the hand where I donated $100 to you so that probably makes me as a fish on yours. Nicely played hand by the way!! I never had you on AA. More like JJ, QQ which you probably wouldn't have folded either.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,894 ✭✭✭✭phantom_lord


    I've about 450+ hands on you that pretty much match that, although you're a losing playing over them, purely because of that hand tho, ul!

    In the main PT window click ALIASES (or something similar, its near the top right, don't have TP here) and you can add merge your stats for the two screen names so your stats aren't split.


    I would fold twice as many hands in the SB, around 50-55% vpip there seems the norm, it looks like you are completing nearly always when the pot isn't raised.

    I get the feeling from your stats (mainly from the vpip/prf ratio) that you are the type of player who sees preflop poker like this,
    bad hand = fold
    not so bad hand = limp/fold to a raise.
    ok hand = limp/call a raise
    good hand = raise

    You should try to fold alot more of your marginal hands and start to raise with the hands you previously limp/called with - in the cutoff and button at the very least.
    If you raise with the hands that you usually limp call with you will find that you have put the same amount of cash in the pot so its costing you exactly the same amount but after the flop you will have a better idea of where opponents are at in the hand (people tend to reraise with big pairs!) and you have the lead in the hand, and it is much harder for people to put you on a hand - you will raise in MP with AA and 77, where as before you would limp/call with 77 and raise with AA.

    So in every hand you get try to think: if I limped would I call a raise? if so I should probably jsut raise myself.
    or if I would fold to a raise I should probably fold now.

    Personally I would fold alot more in the BB if there is a raise.

    Is it normal to lose so much money from the BB? Should I be folding more here in raised pots or is it just posting the blind and not hitting a hand that is costing me so much? A lot of the time I call just for value if its there even though I am usually OOP and then fold on the flop if I dont hit a good hand or draw.

    Stats edited after MR flibble pointed out I could merge them.

    I don't have my stats on hand to compare but I think you are loosing more than normal from the BB. Pratically everyone will be down in the BB, and most in the SB, but not by as much as that. I'll have a look at my stats tonight and see what BB is like.
    I edited my last post in case you missed it.

    yeah your defending your bb too much, play tighter.
