Stats review

[twostate]

Hey guys, have never really used Pokertracker and HUD much previously but have got myself PokerCopilot as i just bought a mac. Installed it on monday and although it is only over a small sample, looking at the stats where do you see need for improvements/adjustments etc? I realise I have been playing alot of hands, but I really feel like I have had a decent edge on my opponents and my hand reading is getting quite good. Still might be a losing strategy ove rthe long run. Would appreciate any comments from people well experienced with their HUD's / PT stats etc.

What game? 6max or FR? etc?

Sorry... NLHE 6max all at 100NL

raise more, call less.

As SP says, there is a 14% difference between your VPIP and Pre-flop raise percentages. Needs to be less than 10%.

So you either need to be raising or re-raising more often instead of calling, or folding instead of calling.

Looks to me like you are calling a pre-flop raise far too often.

Thanks for the replies. I knew this would probably be one of the responses.

So with hands that I would flat with (small PP's, suited connectors/two gappers etc), should I be re-raising them more? I do try and balance my re-raises and would re-raise these sort of hands every now and then in position, but probably call more with them obviously.

....mould your actions to your opps ranges.... pp's for example against a tight opener (particularly when in pos) flatting with huge implied odds will be more profitable however against an opp opening wide 3b'ing pairs will prove more profitable as basically if/when you hit your set it will be difficult to extract value from a range likely to have more than often weak draws/1pair hands... from this idea and also that broadway hands (particularly suited) will operate very effectivly as bluff catchers against a wide range however will prove better to 3b based on your hand blocking much of a tight players 4b/get it in range....

Not necessarily with small PPs, but an example is hands such as A-10 and A-J in the blinds against a late position raiser. Your options in the blinds with these hands should be raise or fold because they don't play great OOP.

Raising very often induces a fold here. If you get 4-bet it's an easy fold (generally, not always) and if they call then you have the initiative in the hand now anyway.

Just an example.
