How Tight is to Tight

It's funny... like 2 or 3 new guys asked what "VP$IP" was and they got three responses. (1)Look in Small Stakes Hold'em by Miller and Slanksy (2)It might be a Poker Tracker stat and (3)It IS a Poker Tracker stat.

Well it is a stat in Poker Tracker. And some people may have figured out by now, but VP$IP (or VPIP) stands for Voluntarily Put Money into Pot. Basically it means what percentage of the time you call or bet.

And just to show that I'm not a know it all... [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img] to you guys who are asking why you have high VP$IP even though you have such tight starting hand selections: Does the VP$IP stat only track voluntarily calling/raising PREFLOP or does it track throughout the entire hand? If it's the latter, you could have tight starting hands reqs but take them too far... thus giving you a high VP$IP.
