Re: Poker Tracker newbie
You shouldn't be worried about your BB/100. This if affected by luck, especially when you're just starting out. Focus on numbers like VPIP%, PFR % and your postflop aggression numbers. In my opinion, these numbers should be somewhere in the neighborhood of 20, 10 and 3.

Re: Poker Tracker newbie
I'm just getting the hang of PT also so take this with a grain of salt. Some of the vetrans can probally direct you better than me. I think to start with that the BB/100 is going to be in direct relationship to how good your table selection is. That is to say if you are picking your tables good and getting alot of chasers your BB/100 will be higher than someone who has been playing along time and playes bigger limit games where the compatition is (suppose to be)better. Mine is right now 14.5/100. but its only 1300 hands and i'm watching my tables I play. Don't know if this will help you or not, I hope so.

I'd go for about 17-18% and 8.5-9%, or even a little less. Especially for a new player, who has a lot of experience to gain and probably isn't a postflop wizard (yet). Those extra couple % of hands you cut are barely +EV anyway, and played incorrectly postflop can be very -EV. Those marginal hands can get you into some sticky situations that are just as well avoided for new players. After you know what's what, start adding in some of those things.. My 1st couple months I was like 15/7%, pretty much a rock, and even now I'm only up to about 18/9. That's cuz I play a lot of tables though, I'd probably be about 20/10 if I was playing a single table. |

im at my first 1k and i am 5.41 so i guess then i am real bad off.. [/ QUOTE ] 5.4 will still be near impossible to maintain, that would be extraordinarily good. 3-4 is very very good, 2-3 is good. That guy has 14bb/100 at 1300 hands, that means he won $182. That's just a few really good sessions, a nice hot streak.. I promise that number will dwindle down. I bet nobody in this forum has >5bb/100 over more than 100k .5/1 hands. Higher limits, it'll go down even more. I'm not there yet, but you'd probably be REAL happy to have 2-3 by the time you hit 3/6 |

[img]/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img] But as I'm still relatively new to real poker (not the chip spewing I used to play) I'm grinding it out in the micros .02-.04/.10-.20. So it's not near that much $$$. But yes I'm glowing with pride now but realize it will fall off dramiticaly when I move up. But GOD DAMN it looks good. lol |
