Wait, I'm confused (or maybe you are ;) ).  In EP, VPIP is 12 and PFR is 9.  That's only a 3% difference.  And probably what's happening is that I'm just calling too much if UTG open limps -- which of course happens a lot in the micros.  But your point is taken.

So I ran two little reports in PokerTracker looking at my winrate as you suggested.  Over 5k hands, both  reports UTG and UTG+1....

1) VPIP and holding AA-99, AKs-AJs, AKo-AQo, KQs.  Results: BB/100 = +1.
2) VPIP and [I]NOT [/I]holding those same hands.  Results: BB/100 =  (...get ready....) -190!!!  (That's right, negative 190 BB/100.)

This is ridiculous.  If I did absolutely nothing differently except only  playing premium hands in EP and my post-flop game [I]exactly [/I]the  same, I go from hemorrhaging $ to being in the black.  Needless to say, I  don't play anywhere near as many non-premium hands in EP, but still....   Wow.  Thought you'd get a kick out of that.  (Ha, now imagine if I did work on my post flop game -- which I am, of  course. [IMG]http://forumserver.twoplustwo.com/images/smilies/wink.gif[/IMG])

Probably right.  Very often there are no raises preflop and several limpers, so when it  comes around to me in the SB I'm probably thinking, "Sure I'll see the  flop for half price. Since all five of you guys are basically begging me  to come along, I'll pay the discounted rate and maybe flop a 2P or  trips then I can shove."  Of course if I don't hit something I'll drop  it, but I think that's why I'm VPIP'ing.  Hmm.  Quick fix on that one.  [IMG]http://forumserver.twoplustwo.com/images/smilies/smile.gif[/IMG]
