Good point :+1:t2: 6 equals more blinds and more hands

Interesting to see the different stats here, although I am not sure what they indicate.
My stats are 63% folded, 21% won, 52% at showdown and 48 without.

Really, i exactly never gave it much thought but TY:).

Those figures are about the average for a player here .

I think these stats indicate a certain skill level but especially a player’s playing style. Btw, when I say skill level, I don’t mean they are a better player than you but rather how consistent their play is.

From these stats you can see who are Bluffers, LAG, TAG and Nit players

Agree largely style I recon,
Folds = Range (and stakes),
Wins = Skill/Luck?
Showdown = To take it down or Slow play…

Mine is 66% 21%

My stats show 80% hands folded, 12 % hands won, but only 219k hands played which is NOWHERE near the truth, played like zillions more so I don’t know what’s up with that?!

I’ve been here about 7 years, probably play that many hands in just one year.

I must agree with your ribbing of me, my winning % is not too good :slight_smile:
At least I’m winning 60% of the hands I play, big deal.
Seems like the stats could be a bit misleading, since most of the time I play on a 9 seat table.
If a player plays at a 6 seat table most of the time, seems they should have a better %.
Seems if you’re playing a larger % of hands, you’d have a better winning %.
I fold a lot, perhaps I’m a nit, but most of my hands are trash anyway. Sometimes I’ll play a dumb hand just because I have a good feeling about it, or am on the button/cutoff.
It often seems, just like at the casino, that winning/losing comes in waves, now if I could just predict when the good wave is arriving, lol.

I think the percentage of hands folded will depend on the type of game you are playing, whether MTT or ring game.

In MTTs I win the majority of pots that I play, and in the later stages of tournaments if you lose a pot you tend to be out of it, or out of it very soon after that.

In ring games people play with much deeper stacks and enter many pots speculatively so as to see a flop. In MTTs, after the first 50 minutes, it is too expensive to waste chips to do this.

The real knack to playing ring games is to make your winning pots more profitable than your losing pots and to get paid when you have the best hand.

I had been playing for a few years on Replay Poker almost exclusively (like 99.5%) in MTTs, basically because I did not know how to play Ring games. However a few weeks ago I decided to give ring games a go. It is very different from MTTs, and at first I was playing very badly while I was learning the game. In 2 weeks I lost 65 million chips.

However I was determined to learn how to play Ring games, and over the following two weeks I won back my 65 million chips. What I discovered was that most of the conventional wisdom in poker books does not really work on Replay Poker ring games for various reasons.

Really it is a matter of studying your opponents. You are not constantly changing tables like in tournaments tournaments so knowing and understanding the playing style of your opponents is much more important.

I may write some more posts about playing ring games, but here are a couple of observations:

  1. Many players lose out on earning chips because they shove their entire stack when they make the nut flush or boat, and they rarely get paid.

  2. When you are playing with deep stacks, it is hardly ever worthwhile shoving your whole stack. If you do have the absolute nuts, you will hardly ever get paid off, and if you don’t have the absolute nuts, then sooner or later somebody else will. Of course there are exceptions in the case of playing versus small stacks.

  3. In ring games pots are hardly ever won on the flop, so conventionally powerful hands like AA or AK are not as valuable unless the flop hits them hard. For example top pair on a ragged rainbow flop, but even then you have to beware of opponents flopping sets or two pairs and you can easily lose your shirt.

  4. Most of the time in ring games you just break even, but every now and again you win huge pots when opponents misjudge or make huge bluffs that you can call. If you can get to be the biggest stack on your table, with something like 4 or 5 times the buy-in, you can cruise along relatively peacefully winning pots mostly uncontested, but the larger your stack becomes, the more careful you have to be, because it is very tiresome to play for hours and build a huge stack and then risk a large part of your winnings on a single hand when you pick up bullets.

About one year later thought I’d look back at this thread.
Certainly I was wrong about the stat page being wrong, it’s likely correct.
Seems like I play a lot more hands than it says, but I don’t.
Now I’m up to 264,064 hands played.
Still at 80% hands folded and 12% hands won, seems unmovable.
Whatever that means, happily I’m at the most chips I’ve ever had, minus the one 250k T I didn’t place in since, over 86 mil.
Have a nice day.

Doing the math I have folded 80.4% of my hands while winning 12.2% of them.
It’s going to take a whole lot of hands with me doing something different to change the 80% and 12% on my stat page.

The % won stat really only tells you how many opponents you have on average. If you’re really good or really weak, you might shift it a small amount, but not as much as you’d think. In the Polk vs Negreanu challenge, Doug only won 52% of pots despite coming out well ahead.
That 2% difference is actually really important, but for the Replay stat to be useful, you would actually need to know exactly what the average number of players you were against was, and therefore what the expected % pots won is.

yeah, makes sense, it does depend a lot on the number of players…generally it’s quite a few unless you’re down to head to head or the like…thus , my %'s probably won’t change much since mostly I’m going up against 8 other players
