What's your set up like?

WS% / W$SD / BB@100
VP$P / PFR% /AF / HANDS

fa: = flop aggression
ta: = turn aggression
ra: = river aggression

cc: = Cold call pre flop
cb: = C/Bets %
fcb: = Fold to C/bet

Any questions?

How do you take a screenshot?

"print screen" button captures the whole screen

alt + "print screen" captures the active window

open paint and paste (ctrl + v)

If you hate paint use some other program (hint, Irfanview is free) which is better at cropping/resizing

i dont use a HUD...

all i use is the icon from PT. i resize my tables to see them all simultaneously...so, not much space.

if i have questions about a player, i "hover" over the icon, and look at his numbers more closely.

How do you get the abbreviations before the numbers? ex: (fa: 2.2)

Opponents stats
Top row: Cbet fold/call/raise %
Next row: Fold to flop/turn/river bet %, call pf raise %
Left side: VPIP, PFR, Cbet %
Right side: WSD%, W$SD%
Bottom: AF flop/turn/river, TAF, Total Hands

My stats in bottom right
Top row: VPIP, Call pf raise, WSD, TAF
Bottom: PFR, Cbet %, W$SD, total hands

IMO you two have way too many numbers up and there is no way you use them all.

The only ones i dont really use are the top row, the fold/raise/call cbet %. But for the most part i use all the others.

beginner question.. how do you even get those stats on the table and what do the smiley icons mean? especially on AP

Its a combination of Pokertracker and Pokerace HUD. I think its $80 for both programs, well worth it. If you have any kind of a roll you should purchase immediately.

dsm, you should get a table mod for absolute if you can find one... thats so cluttered with the background like that.

my full tilt setup

why do you guys put so much of that bullshit on your screen? If you need to see that much, just click on their name and pull up the extended stats.

I really like how I have mine now, shout to TJ for teaching me about combined stats

I dont mind having all of it on screen at one time. I would get tired of having to pull up someones stats every hand, or several times throughout a hand. I just got used to it and look at the stats i need to look at at any point in time.

Here's mine:

VPIP - Fold BB to steal - #Hands
PFR - Attempt to steal - Cold call pf
[-----------------------------------]
Aggression frequency by street

I havent gotten around to modding the cards/table, or color coding all the stats. I also want to incorporate the various c-bet related stats somehow. I'm a bit scared that I'll become too stats-oriented like I used to be.

What odd stats have people found most effective.

IMO cold call cbet% i seem to get nothing out of, fold to turn bet % im getting a ton out of.

After the holy trinity I only just incorporated more stats into my setup.

VPIP/PFR/AF/Hands
Now I also have Aggression on each street which I found really useful in analyzing betting behavior and Folds to c/bet but this only really useful over a big total of hands.

However, I frequently check the WTSD/Won%SD on the pull-up tab.

My setup

lol@not knowing how your opp plays without stats.

I use the HUD to see what cards my opp was holding. Its very fast and when your playing 4-8 tables, its much easier!!

QFT.

Though if you play better without a HUD or at a site where other players cant use one, by all means don't use one. Don't be hating on those who do, though.

i think it is great if you can play your A game while keeping track of things like VP$IP and PFR by yourself, but i could never imagine being able to do this acuratly while playing more than 2 tables. IMO, playing 3+ tables there is just no way you can do as good of a job at this as a HUD does. When i play at work i dont use a hud, and while i have a decent idea of what the regulars are doing, i dont have a very good feel for the shortstacks and people i havent played much with.

I could probly play 2 tables without a hud if i really put all my focus on them. But instead i find myself browsing ftr while im playing so a hud is nice. Playing 4 tables i wouldnt be able to do it, or would i remember all the past players ive played with and exactly how they play.

If you're playing without a HUD i'd really recommend playing at a site which doesn't support PT as then you aren't giving any edge to your opponents. Players are usually very fishy at non PT sites as well.

How would you feel about sharing?

And wow some of you guys have a lot of numbers up there.

Mine's in the thread bub.

Wait, I might be getting leveled....

Nah I mean what are combined stats?

If you look at my picture you see that there are "/" between each number. You can group a set of stats together (combined stats) in the layout manager.

My first set of combined stats is VPIP/PFR/Total Hands

The second set is TAF/Flop agg/Turn agg/River agg.

I also have these stats are in my drop down:

cbet stats
blind defense stats
blind steal stats
winrates
coldcall %'s
showdown %'s.

What I dislike about the combined stats is that you can't color code them individually.

i tried combined stats for a while, but switched back for this reason.

I don't color code. I don't need something to tell me what a number means, I know what it means.

Hey, I looked at your screenshot again. Seems like you can color code the combined stats just fine from that pic? Still, I'm gonna keep using the single stats simply because I think it's nice to be able to move stats around individually.

Cool found it. Thanks spenda.

haha I keep trying to get stats like those displayed and I pick the ones I want and save and then.... I'm left with the same old pfr, vpip and af. damn I suck I'm gonna have another crack at it I must be doing something stupid
