Default Re: Using PT for table selection

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.
