Well I'm trying to sync up some stats to get an idea of game context. Just because he's in some normal stat range doesn't make them good plays. Generally in a tight game you have more chances to steal blinds, but if he's playing in a tight game why is he playing rather loose preflop? He doesn't really have a sample size large enough to make any real judgements either way.

uh you are misunderstanding the stat, its basically, whenever its openfolded to you in the CO or BTN a raise is considered a steal attempt

so if you play in a very loose game, you won't have many opportunities to steal, but should still be stealing a fair % of the time you have the chance, its dependent on the blinds, and if in a tight game you'll have more opportunites and should steal more

I understand what the stat means but I have always thought you are less likely to steal, because it will be less successful, in a loose game or versus loose blinds because they are gonna call anyway.

So you are saying no matter how the blinds play you should be raising 30%+ of your hands in the CO and button when it is folded to you?

It's just hard for me to have a hard number for steal attempts when I am not sure about his game context.
