Using PT for table selection
 

Hi,

I bought PT a few weeks ago and I´m trying to figure out all the stuff I can do with it. I´ve been watching my tables using GT+, and there´s a lot of fish out there.
My question is: what table avg. should I be looking for to find the really profitable tables? Since there is a lot of loose players at almost every table I think it would be great with some selection stats. I play at Party, mostly at the LL, $1-2 and $2-4.

All the best

It all boils down to finding tables where your opponents make regular and exploitable errors. Usually, this falls under the categories of "playing too many hands" and "going too far with them". High VPIP and low PFR is the barometer for how "good" a game is.

However, I've been in some tight (15 VPIP) games that were very beatable, because I had good book on my opponents. It's my opinion that this is the most important feature of PT.

Back when I was looking primarily at table VPIP and PFR when selecting tables at PP (.5/1 full), I would require at least 30% VPIP and under 5% PFR. Barring that, I would like overall passiveness and at least one player with a VPIP over 70 and a WtSD% over 50 - with position, of course.

Now I try to choose games almost solely based on who else is playing in them.
