I've used PokerTracker on several occaisons over the past few years and I don't know why exactly, but the effect on my game has really been negative.

While the stats geek in me loves the program, I find that I become a little too immersed in the statistics of my play at the expense of my feel for the game.

Perhaps it's just level of the maturation process that I have yet to achieve but it seems that when I am focused on "improving" my V$IP and Agression factors, or attempting to exorcise leaks, through analyzing PT stats, my game suffers. It's like I become too focused on MY game and less focused on THE game in front of me; if that makes any sense.

Anyway, just wondered if this common or not.

don't pay attention to the stats too much. They are never a problem themselves, just perhaps a symptom of a problem, or leak in your game.

Focus on playing the hands correctly and the stats will come. If poker tracker gets in the way of this, stop using it.
