Can someone explain the relevance of VP$IP % please?

What does the 'voluntarily' part mean for example. Whats a good VP$IP?

VP$IP means that you voluntarily put money into the pot to see the flop. If you are the BB and just check that would not count, however if you are SB and complete than it counts. If you are BB and call a raise than that would also count.

For a full table, the low 20's to hi teen's would be a good tight player. For 6 players, hi 20's to low 30's would be ok.

This is micro limit.

Thanks for the help.

In Hold'em, in a full table, early stages of a tourney or in a cash game, under 20% is mod tight, and under 10-12% is squeeky tight.

micro limit what? NL or limit?

[Strange]

You know what, I typed 'micro limit limit' at first, but decided that the second 'limit' was redundant. My bad I guess.

This was micro limit, limit Texas Hold 'Em (poker).

vpip of about 20% is pretty tight in limit.

Thanks jojo,

So, does that translate to 20% is good? Or overly tight?

And shouldn't you be asleep?

i play right around 20%. it's darn tight, and it keeps me out of trouble (b/c i have a hard time laying down marginal hands on later streets).

asleep? i'm on vacation, baby!
