Default Re: how tight

I think it is important, but only for the multitablers/taskers. It is nice to immediately know if you are playing against a retarded player. I 4 table and often watch TV etc, so I am not always paying the most attention to the game to identify player habits, the stats allow me to adjust my play by opponent as appropriate. (obviously paying attention would be better)

i'd like to add to this rather than start a new thread.

how important do you all think player reads are? I'm too lazy to datamine, pokeredge was sweet but that's gone now. If you couldn't have any player reads at all what percentage do you think your win rate would drop?

thanks

I think datamining is more useful at shorthanded tables so you know who to isolate against, since these situations come up more often short.

My rule for this is everyone who limps [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img] i don't think having stats to help my 3 bet isolation plays will help much since i isolate a lot of players with 3 bets because nearly everyone raises a lot preflop in these games and will then shruggle to call on the flop with a high enough frequnecy that i'm not making auto money.

So onwards, i can't largely blame no player reads for my breakeven streak, i can't really blame variance either, i think it's time to 1 or 2 table while i fix up my abc game.

Losing 200-300BBs over a few days in that game is not uncommon
