Default Re: Are HUD displays useful?

I use one and find it useful, but not hugely useful. If in the middle rounds I have 40 hands total on someone and see that they have limped in 16% of the time and raised 0% then they fire a raise in the CO and I am on the button, I muck something like AQ or 88 (even JJ probably) pretty quickly. If the same person raised 15% of the time, I am probably pushing to isolate them. I 8 table, so I would probably be hard pressed without the HUD to know in the first case that the person had been a complete rock so far and could easily make a mistake there and take way the worst of it.

If I had to guess, I would say it comes in handy on about 3% of my decisions, and very handy in less than 1%, but those are just wild guesses.
