Default Re: Table selection

I play four-tables with pokertracker and playerview running. If any of the tables are complete rock gardens (almost every player under 25% VP$IP) I leave. I look for the +50% VP$IP players and follow them around if necessary. My buddy list is very long and I will often do a search for my favorites. Datamining (opening tables and watching them for hours at a time to collect data) is crucial, especially if you are preparing to jump levels. It gives you stats on thousands of players you're likely to meet in future games.

Default Re: anybody else think like this?

I used to think that as well, but after playing at tables with mostly TA-Ns and TA-As, I've concluded that I'm not ready to learn how to beat those at this stage. In fact, I think most 5/10 players couldn't even do it. Hence, I now look for a table that is either very beatable for me, or beatable but challenging.

If the first table is all TAG, great! I need to learn how to beat these types.

I can dig what you guys are saying, but you need to change tables.

I 4 tabled last night, and 2 of my tables were 43% and 45% average VP%IP, one was like 25 (not great) and one was about 16. (eeeewwwwww.....) I stayed at the loose ones and left the tight ones, it really is that easy. eventually I got 2 more in the 28-30 range, and I was happy with that. The three players to my right on the 45% VP$IP table were VP$IP 40, 50, and 70. BOOYA.

Yeah, GT+ is a beatiful thing. I love sitting at a 45+% VP$IP table watching someone with 80% VP%IP bust out, only to reload another $25. Cha-ching.
