When Saw Flop

cheers. should they skew up or down depending on position? i assume they're a bit lower in the blinds cause of limped pots and the like

The stat will be much lower when in the blinds due to the fact you see more flops with crap holdings. In general anything between 42-48 is pretty acceptable afaik

If you have a W$WSF of 48% I'd say you are either sick good or you're overplaying hands.

There's general agreement that something in the neighborhood of 21% is a respectable standard and that anything more than 35% is particularly strong.

I prefer a combination of went to showdown, where a percentage of less than 39% is excellent and won at showdown, where half or more is very strong.

I have also, after quite some time, replaced post-flop aggression with total aggression, with 50% to 60% representing excellence; anything more, very strongly aggressive. PokerAce Josh recommends this personally. See the forum.

I have never seen a post anywhere that attempted to correspond any combination of PAHUD stats to ranges -- and a player's estimated range, particularly late-stage in tournaments, plus (of course) stack size and position, and any emotional baggage your opponent may be burdened with currently, are more important than a general assessment of your man's customary style reflected in his collected HUD stats.

I also pay excessive attention to my own stats during play to assess my table image and my best guess is that my opponents pretty much mostly don't -- unless I have personally bullied them out of a previous hand, which may well induce a spite call in my future, reducing what might otherwise be my proper fold equity mathematically.

most tags are 37/38%. 40%+ would be acceptable i would have thought.

Jay, 21% W$WSF is waaaaay too low. 39% WtSD is way too high ... except if you run at 50%+ WaSD then it's acceptable . Actually, combining those two stats means that you almost never win without a showdown, so you're probably not aggressive enough.

Bob, if you hover over the column heading in pokertracker it should tell you what it means on the status bar (bottom left of the window).
