Has anyone tried to associate PT stats (for example: 23/14/2.5) to what approximate hand ranges that equates to?

I mean I've been playing for quite awhile, I have PT and PAHUD and I look at the stats..... but I gotta admit that I don't feel like I have nearly a good enough handle on how to translate them, or put them to practical use....

Sad really. I've been playing far too long to just have had this realization the other day... Definitely a leak, and a good sign that I've gotten lazy in terms of trying to move my game to the next level....

Go to 2plus2 in the software section there is a thread regarding how to use PT and PAHUD and "roughly" where the stats put a person.

This though is useless without links... I just looked for some on 2+2 but came up with nothing.

VPIPs are not the whole answer on hand ranges, but basically the bigger it is the wider the range. Playing full ring games, 23 is in the semi loose range, and for 6max it's in the tight range.

Putting HUD numbers to use depends on what numbers you display. For example, folds to c-bet % is one of the more useful numbers IMO. Unless you're datamining, you may not get enough hands on your opponents for it to really be useful.

That makes complete sense. Excession is the PT/PAHUD savant!

Thanks, I'm gonna check that link when I get home from work

I realized earlier, but those are just Excession's PT rules for ranking players. That has nothing to do with the original question - possible hand ranges of someone that is 23/7/2 or somesuch.

That said, Excession's talk about how his rules came about is well worth reading.

I think how the player ranks would help determine his hand range...
Maniac=any two cards any position
Rock=JJ+, AQs+
LAG=22+,suited connectors from any postion, connected from late position
TAG=22-1010 late, 77+ mid, jj+early, suited connectors in position

Rough guidlines?

We don't know what game he's playing, so we can't make any inferences as to hand ranges other than what I posted - high VPIP=wide range.
