Pots won versus flops seen; 54677/135025=40.4%
About the same as where I am. I think this is the most important metric, as it’s telling you how effective you have been with the hands you play. If you’re playing too many hands, that number would be going lower, as you’d be playing hands less likely to win.
I love the game,a beautiful game!! I am the statistics but not when i got that card i am just after!! Stats!! But its interesting!! But do you rely on that i only won 22% of my pots or do you rely on my play?
I play mostly tournament games, so my fold rate is higher. because you can’t win any chips unless you finish in the top 2 tables.
and sometimes I don’t care about chips… but points 4 me team 4 bragging rights.
I’ve folded 78% of my hands. I tend to play a tight game but will call on trash hands randomly to keep players off balance.
Okay, this is a bit late to the party, but I fold about 75% of my hands according to Replay. The thing is this, that stat doesn’t differentiate when you fold. Post flop folds can indicate you may (operative word being may) be an easy bluff, whereas preflop folds relate to your hand selection. Those are two different issues.
I’m sure people view me as an easy bluff because I don’t chase most overpairs or gut shot draws. That’s fine, because I profit when they overbet while I’m holding the goods and tend to fold when I bluff them.
For me, the important information is how many pots I win pre and post flop (separate figures), how many pots I win in relation to pots seen (around 30%), how many showdowns won v Lost (around half).
You can figure out how often you’re folding preflop, at least on a daily basis, by using a pad or spreadsheet to tally your hands played, flops seen, and pots won pre-flop.
Total Hands Played - Flops Seen - Preflop Pots Won = Preflop Folds
Preflop Folds / Total Hands Played = Preflop Folding Percentage
However, if you’re interested in a deeper dive by tracking the same numbers I do, I linked a spreadsheet to do that to this more recent post:
See you on the tables.
I don’t like to do math calculations unless it tells me something.
(1) What does the Preflop Folding % mean?
(2) It seems like a lot of work and effort for me to do a similar spreadsheet, great it works for you. My play is mostly or always situational based on cards dealt to me, the cards on the board, how players bet and how they react to my betting and maybe some more info.
I briefly looked at your spreadsheet example and can’t see how I can use it except that it is gathering additional stats which are unavailable to everyone except you.
Thanks for the info,
It can indicate that you are too passive or too aggressive.
I play in the moment like you do. The spreadsheet is a personal tool to review your overall performance afterward. Maybe you don’t value that. Others do.
Sounds like you have some gauge of what you consider too aggressive or passive.
What Preflop % would you consider normal or average?
I honestly never have thought about it since I’ve mentioned how I play. This kind of touches (and maybe actually is) an indication of a player’s identified playing styles e.g., LAG, TAG, NIT or BINGO which is usually easily recognized without using a spreadsheet.
If you don’t know your own playing style, then you’re not really paying attention.
The thing is one really has to mix it up, so they aren’t regularly labeled as noted above.
For a straight answer here, the general consensus among pros and coaches is the following:
Pros vs pros: seeing a flop with 30-35% of all hands is considered the dividing line between tight (30% or less) and loose 35% or more).
Good players exploiting weaker players by using an exploitative range: under 25% or 20% is considered tight, over 30% or 35% is considered loose.
Replayers tend to be even looser, so I personally consider anyone here playing 45% or more hands to be quite loose and 30% to be on the tight side for sure.
But to put it in perspective, Nathan blackrain79, probably the most successful low-stakes online exploiter in history recommends tight and aggressive, opening 20% of hands in 6-max and 15% of hands in 9-ring. Mind you he multitables 20 or 30 tables at once, almost exclusively cash games, and he admittedly blatantly bum hunts.
Hrmm. : P
We get that you fly by the seat of your pants. Some of us prefer the plane to be safety checked.
PS, I know exactly how I play because I have the numbers to show me. You think you know how you play bc you don’t.
I don’t consider how I play is a seat of my pants style. I view it as very analytical based on how the board plays out. I guess you just don’t see it that way.
well im glad its a good topic to talk about… because if you cant improve your stats… after a 1’4 million hands… no one can realy help you at that time… need to work on your stats… from day 1
statistics should be a topic … for the new players on replay… and some of the old players w/ good stats should give them some good advice… but if there stats are better than yours… early in replay… i want to know about it… i can always use help in privet invite and team games
You can’t base your strategy on how the board plays out unless you know which cards are coming and what your opponents have. All you can do is react to your cards, the board, and your opponent’s bets, as we all do.
The difference between you and players who track data is that we know more about ourselves.
What were you analyzing on This Hand?
But you admit that you don’t pay attention to any stats. That’s the opposite of analytical.
No, you can’t do much to change the numbers of 1.4 million hands other than play another 1.4 million. What you can do, is look at your daily numbers in comparison to those 1.4 million hands.
When have I ever said this?
Are you taking something out of context?
