Pre Flop Raise Percentage.
 

I have been struggling with trying to get my preflop raise percentage up. I have 12,000 hands at .50-$1 and my pre-flop raise percent is 5.60. I am winning 2.88bb/100. Is this good, ok or should I push it up. I have over 600 big bets in my br but I want to improve on this area of my game before I move up. Any comments or help would be greatly appreciated.

5.60 is low.

What is your VPIP?

vpip=17.53

Yep, PFR is lower than it could be.

Post a couple of hands that you weren't sure whether they deserved a PFR or not for comments.

Ha I could fill a book with examples. I think I know when I could be more agressive I just am wondering what is considered a good pfr#, and how far away am I.

"Good" is a tough one. My stats at 0.5/1.00 were:

15000 hands: VPIP: 18.6 PFR: 7.6 BB/100: 4.6

My PFR could probably use a nudge upwards as well.

Wow 18% thats interesting seems to have an effect on bb/100 also. Thanks for your help.
