REALLY dumb PT question

[jkamowitz]

Hi, I"m pretty new to PT so this is a really basic question. In everyone's post they always say "they had XX/XX/XX over blank amount of hands. . .what are these numbers and what makes them more importantn than other stats about the player. Thanks

A/B/C, where:

A is VP$IP, B is PFR, and C is AF.

[kidcolin]

vpip/pfr%/weiner size

[POKhER]

VPIP = How many hands % he plays,
PFR = How many hands % he raises(Note: This is from all his hands, NOT a % of his VPIP... I.e. 5% on 100 hands PFR with 10% VPIP = 10hands played, 5hands raised.)

Then AF, this is pretty much a ratio of bets&Raised/Check&calls. Higher number, More aggressive.

Then you got number of hands.

Then other stuff like WTSD = went to show down
and W$SD = Won $ at showdown (won Show down).

So if your me, im 17/7 10max, tight. yeah.

not to be a nit, but when you check the big blind you are playing a hand but not increasing your VPIP

No checks. It's strictly (bets + raises)/calls

AF is highly influenced by looseness. Two players who bet/raise the same hands can have very different AFs depending on whether they call or fold with the hands they don't bet.
