Pointless question about your poker tracker stats

[Tosh]

Other than yourself who has played the most hands on your database and how many ?

[Nottom]

Well considering the backlash MS Sunshine's post got over in the zoo about NL player stats, I'm not sure posting Pockertracker info on other players is the best idea.

Either way the 2nd person in my list has 670 hands, the 3rd is a 2+2er with 502.

Related question. How many 2+2ers are there? How many do you expect to see on any given night of online or B&M gambling?

[Nottom]

Since most 2+2ers are sneaky and don't like people to know who they are its hard to tell sometimes, but there are usually 1 or 2 players sitting at most tables that I recognize as decent players and wouldn't be surprised if they were 2+2ers. There is certainly a group of about 5-10 players that I see all the time that I would imagine are at least lurkers here on the boards.

Also oddly enough of the 10 players I have the most hands against, I have 6 of them currently as losers.

That is interesting! Of the top 10 I have played against (with the most being around 400) only three are losing. Maybe I need to look into my table selection skills...

[Tosh]

I think over the long term its inevitable that most of the players with the most hands would be winners because otherwise they couldn't keep playing.

[CarlNiclas]

That is another way of looking at it. But on the other hand I do my best to find the tables with the really easy players on them, using pt for identification. On the flip side though, so do other players who like me try to play well! /images/graemlins/smile.gif

I'm pretty sure most of those players in my top 10 that are losers were just having a bad run when I was sitting with them. I know at least a couple of them are 2+2ers that from what I've seen should be beating the game and I would rather avoid.

Why do the 2+2 players stay secret anyway ? I'm sure they'd get easier games as most here would probably tend to avoid them if they knew who they were.

Many people talk a better game than they play...

I'm beginning to see why some people like to stay anonymous while playing. I usually get one or two people that recognize me each day, and I'm sure they know a lot more about how I play then I know about them.

If you make the assumption that 2+2ers will on average be better players, then they make good targets for bluffs and thin turn check-raises.

They're more likely to fold to such a show of strength than a typical less-skilled player.
