What type of play is this considered?
Is it good or bad?
Thanks

During current Hold'em session you were dealt 388 hands and saw flop:
- 30 out of 52 times while in big blind (57%)
- 17 out of 51 times while in small blind (33%)
- 68 out of 285 times in other positions (23%)
- a total of 115 out of 388 (29%)
Pots won at showdown - 21 of 40 (52%)
Pots won without showdown - 43

Your showdown % is alittle low IMO. I'm sure some of those were probably bad beats, but out of the 115 flops you saw, you went to showdown 1/3 of the time and only won about half of those times.

it's considered too small a sample size and too little info to be of any real use.

if you're playing at a full table you're far too loose, though.

Arrange these words into an English phrase or saying:

"What type of play is this considered?"

Good luck.

I don't think 29% seeing flop is far too loose at all a FR in general but I think if you are going to see a lot of flops then you have to play more aggressively with them, meaning you should have won more than 43 pots without showdown probs

I meant is this loose, tight, etc.

I can't give more info and this sample size is just past game. I thought PokerStars stores it for your entire history until you clear it, woops!

Depends. I`m not clear what sort of game this is. If it is a full-table ring game, you are on the loose side.

As others have said, your showdown percentage looks poor.

What is a good show down percentage? Would 65% or better be good enough. I have played a few games where the stats provided don't really make alot of sense. You can play TAG go to show down when it's free BB situation and checked all the way this does Skew the percentage. Doesn't it make more sense on the BB/100 Games?

Whether your play is loose / tight depends on whether you are playing 6 seater or 9/10 seater. If it's the later, I'd definitely agree with Dorkus that it's too loose. There are players who can play a very good LAG game, but they tend to be relatively few. Although important, whether you play loose / tight is only (at best) half the equation. To be honest, poker room stats can never be sufficient to provide a reasonable assessment of your play.

Showdown % is fine, anything around 50% (+/-5%) is good.

Very small sample size. Pots won without showdown should be higher, and the amount of flops seen should be less.

Your limping too much with marginal hands, tighten up a bit, and raise first in where possible. Your won at showdown % is fine. But really these stats tell very little, you should get pokertracker, even if its the 1K hands free trial and we can have another look then.

Like TB says, although it depends on the size of the table, and to a certain extent the level that you're playing at.

Showdown is % is fine; higher can indicate that you're losing value getting bluffed out, lower can indiate that you're not bluffing/value betting enough.

But as everyone has said, need a bigger sample size to be certain.
