You can look at stats that converge quickly like VPIP and PFR after 2K hands, just not win rate.

Your VPIP is high. Limping with pocket pairs and suited connectors?

[kirisim]

Yes, I am tending to limp with PP's and suited connectors after 1 or more limpers. But, if I am first in I will tend to raise with 88 or higher and 78s or higher.

Should I be throwing these away in the first two seats?

Should I throw away small pocket pairs in 5th or 6th if it's folded to me? It seems hands like 66 and lower do very poorly if the blinds are apt to defend.

Hmmm...do you tend to play off-suit big cards often?? A/KTo, for instance? Your VPIP does look on the high side.

[kiddo]

Or maybe you are coldcalling? You should almost never coldcall. Only (well) on button and not often at all.

I like 2 limpers before I call with hands like 78s and 44.

Open raising with 88 from any position is standard. A lot of players here will 3-bet with that on the button. I dump 78s from UTG and UTG+1.

Open raising from the cutoff with 66 is fine. 55 and down start to get marginal. Smaller pocket pairs might be profitable depending on how well the blinds play.

As noted previously VPIP is too high. I'd shoot to get that down to 25, which is on the loose side of the typical range, though some few do seem to play something like 28 and win.

PFR at almost 16% is a little high, but could probably work fine if you have a good plan of attack.

Won $ at sd% at 61.64 is high compared to typical stats, but it could be sample size, or you might want to showdown more.

Is a VP$IP of 31 really that high? This guy at

www.thepokerchronicles.com

says he had a VP$IP of 31 after 15,000 hands, and he claims to be a huge winner.
