Message: [QUOTE="Luvepoker, post: 6173195, member: 307971"] One issue using stats it it can be miss-read and miss-used. I have know people who look at the stats and used them and wondered why it does not work. Stats are facts but it take a lot of time to get stats that actually reflect a player. 100 hand is nice and if they play 30 of them you could say there loose but over a 100 hand they could have run hot. With a 1000 hands no you are getting good information. The problem then is it may take you 2 years to get that many hands on the player. Early on the may have played 40 or 50% of hands but today they may actually be only playing 15% as they have changed there style of play. Yes it shows there playing say 30% but its not showing what they are today. Then take CBETing. 1000 hands played is nice and lets say they played 150 hands and you notice they have a cbet number of 90%. You may think there over betting the flop but here if the problem, if you look deeper they on cbet 18 of 27 hands possible Because they raised and everyone folded called or limped more often you only have information of 27 hands. For some very useful statistics you may need to play thousands of hand to get reliable information on the players your against. As for some stats your possible better of not having stats. For one playing and watching will keep you more into the game. Ok its great a player has 30% VIP and you know he is loose but even without them would you notice there playing a lot of hands? Also not having the stats will help you more if you play live. Why? it made me laugh when someone ones said I can win live because I dont have a HUD. While funny its true. Get used to the HUD as a crutch you may have an issue later on. Now dont get me wrong here. I am a math gut and love statistics. I also work in accounting so I really do love playing with numbers, The problem is number can at time not being telling you exactly what you need to know. Worse if you dont know how to read them you could get yourself into a lot of issues. Personally I like not playing with a HUD. [/QUOTE]
