Tight play wins the money? Pokertracker says not!
Since pokertracker started 'autorating players' I wondered which of the profile types was winning the most $. My database has about 8000 hands in it, not a lot but this isn't about my own stats. Its about everyone elses.
Only rating players with 30+ hands played in my database, I have a wide spectrum of player types. Using the filter option I can see how each group does on the summary page. The 4 groups who lose the money: sLP-P (-8 BB per 100 hands) sLA-P (-6 BB per 100 hands) LA-P and LP-P (-5 BB per 100 hands) Maniac (-1 BB per 100 hands) Then there is a group who roughly break even TP-P. LP-A, TA-P, TA-N Now the surprising part TA-A, the group I've been trying to emulate win 3BB/100 TP-A do about the same. sLP-A win twice as much, near to 7BB/100 and sLA-A win twice as much as that, 14BB/100!! BUT streaks ahead are LA-A who win 22BB/100 hands !?!!? Of all the LA-A players in my databse, 80% are winners. These are aggressive players with a VP$IP averaging 45%?!?! Pokertracker seems to be telling me: Be aggressive, be very aggressive, and play one hand in every two! Can this be true? Surely not I must be missing something obvious here. What is it?? (Ratings based on 8,000 hands involving 7-10 players at a mixture of limits, $0.5/$1 $1/$2 and $2/$4) |
