Default Re: Some notes on STATS

You and I are agreeing on almost every issue. The difference is this:

If I have played 20k hands at 1/2 and I am looking to move up to 2/4 (where the game becomes notably more aggressive and a little looser), a quick look at my stats could be indicative of any adjustments I need to make. If your PF raise is below 7, that might be something you need to look into.

The stats are not perfect - but a 20k sample size at a limit is a pretty good indication of general trends for a player. I think BB/100 is a silly stat (the more I play, the more I think this is true...I've been playing some good poker at 2/4 for the last 1500 hands and I have 10 big bets to show for it)...but I do think that, if anyone is planning on switching limits, stats can be extremely useful in identifying potential trouble points.
