This is from a little experiment that I've been running with 9 player SnGs.
Here's a screenshot from the blind summary in PokerTracker. VP$IP increases nice and steady as does PFR%, but there's a big negative net at the point when the blinds reach 50/100.
There's no big change elsewhere, except some shifting in the PF AF and Turn AF.
Now, this is at pokerstars, so when the blinds hit 100 it's generally when someone (sometimes me) is in trouble and starts shoving. Plus, the blinds are high enough that they are worth stealing. And now that I look at it, 25/50 is lower than the others too.
How can my PFR% keep increasing but PF AF drops at the next level? And more importantly, how does my PFR% keep gradually increasing but the net suddenly drops, then goes positive again?
If my stats aren't changing except as gradual increases, does that imply the other players are starting to play their own hands better at that point?
Or, is there just not enough data, and there are a few really big hands that I lost at this point.
