some stupid questions

gosplan

Can someone please explain player ratings.

i.e. 50/10/5 and so on.

Also what's H.O.R.S.E??

Sorry to ask such simple questions. Guess the thread can be locked pretty early.

Thanks

The stats are taken from pokertracker,

generally its VBIP/Preflop Raise/Aggression Factor.

VBIP, is basically the amount of pots which the player has put money into.


H.O.R.S.E is limit Hold Em/Omaha/Razz/Stud High/Stud high low

I think sometimes omaha is played as omaha hi lo.

Couple of small corrections of the above. It is VPIP (Voluntarily Put In Pot). This means that calling or raising contributes to this figure, but being in the BB and checking does not unless you bet or call somewhere else in the hand.

HORSE is always played with Omaha HiLo (Also known as 8/b i.e. 8 or better). This is a mix of all the games and is played on a round by round basis.

Last question.

Does anyone know of or have a link to a good system for remembering aggression/tightness etc in live games.
