What are my stats telling me about my game?

#1 13-07-2008, 9:36 AM

O.K. for some reason i couldn't format this properly so I have added a JPEG and a TXT version of my stats... hopefuly I will get some response :P

so these particular stats are from a low limit SnG on Full Tilt. I realize that these are just from 120 or so hands but my stats look the same almost every tim I play So assume they are from 10K hands.

What does this tell about my game, I mean where am I weak, where I am strong, where the holes are, what should I be especially careful about etc. Keep in mind that the stats include short-hand and heads up play which inflates the SAW FLOP significantly. During regular play SAW PLOP ranges from 21% to 32%.

Any help and advise is greatly appreciated.
Thanks.

Even if it was from 10K hands it's tough to figure.

For one thing, in tournys you do need to adjust your range according to the table size and blind level so you need to look at those stats separately. And "saw flop" is different if you were in the big blind and checked as opposed to calling someone's raise.

Try downloading PT3 or HEM and using the trial version to get standard stats. It'll make it a lot more meaningful.

It would be more meaningful if you calculated VPIP% (Voluntarily Put Money In Pot) which is the number of times you actually played a hand not counting the big blind. Also PFR% (PreFlop Raise) which is how often you raise preflop. The first should run about 17-22% and the second about 4%. If its higher your are in too many pots or raising too often. If your opponent is higher than this they are playing more marginal hands.

As ninelions said there is software you can get that tracks these stats for you.

Hard to say from these kinds of stats,like others have said using Poker Tracker or HM will give you much better details.

PFR% of 4% is way to low imo
