![]() ![]() See how I would take notes on this page within my poker journal: Start tracking your win rate now and work on ways of increasing it to get more out of your time on the felt. The bottom line: you can’t improve what you don’t measure. You can see how increasing our win rate and the # of hands played can have a serious effect on our bottom line. And, what if we could play an additional 200,000 hands in the year? We’d be at a win rate of 5bb/100 over 1,200,000 which would equate to $15,000 in winnings. If it took us a year to reach 1,000,000 hands, our winnings at this new level of 5bb/100 hands would be 25% more at $12,500. Let’s say through some focused work on fixing our leaks, maybe at 1 hour per day over a year, we can bring our win rate up to 5bb/100 hands. How to Exploit: Knowing our win rate gives us an idea of how much we can make in the long run, but it also gives us something to shoot for. Of course, the more you play, the more you win with a positive win rate. If we only played 100 hands, we’d be up $1. This would be $10,000 profit at 4bb/100 hands. What if we instead of playing 10,000 hands we played 1,000,000 hands. Putting the # in Perspective: A pretty respectable number, 4bb/100 hands. This is 400bb’s total, won after 100 sets of 100 hand played, so our win rate is 400/100 or 4BB/100 hands played. Basically, you’re taking your winnings divided by the # of hundreds of hands played.Įxample: we won $100 at 25NL over 10,000 hands. The denominator of this equation is the # of hands played divided by 100. Stat Description: for cash players, the BB/100 hands win rate is how we measure our profits, in BB’s, in relation to the # of hand played.įormula for the Stat: this is the total money won in terms of BB as the numerator. I’ll discuss 3 or 4 aspects for each of these stats: ![]() You can see how powerful it is to understand our opponent’s frequencies. This works very well if we open from the BTN, and works extremely well if we’re cold 4betting from the BB versus their SB 3bet and a wide pre-flop opener’s range. If they’re folding all of their bluffs, then our 4bet to 25bb’s is about break-even versus a 10bb 3bet and we’re printing money if they 3bet to 11 or 12bb’s because they’re folding too often.Įvery time they 3bet us, we should be considering a 4bet as a bluff. They’re bluffing here 96 out of 158 combos, which is 61% of the time. These 158 combos only contain 62 combos of value, which means 96 combos are likely folding. This 12% range of 158 combos only contains 62 combos of value hands which are TT+ and AQ+. How do we know this?Īt 12% they’re potentially 3betting 158 combos stuff like 88+, T9s+, A9s+, ATo+, KTs+ and KJo+: For example, if somebody 3bets from the SB at 12%, we know they’re bluffing more than 60% of the time. If we know how often they do something, we can find ways to exploit that frequency. Statistics tell us how frequently a player makes an action (their tendencies in certain spots).
