Linky: Limit Hold'em HUDs Revealed

PSW: What HUD stats are most helpful to you in Limit Hold'em?

Tony: The most useful stat I use is Raise First In (RFI) broken down by position. This allows me to assign my opponents a specific range from the beginning of the hand, which is invaluable. Other stats I use are VPIP, WTSD, Fold BB to Steal, Fold SB to Steal, Turn check/raise %, and turn c-bet %.

All of these stats have value, some apparent and some not so apparent. For example, one of the most difficult decisions you have in Limit Hold’em is whether to continuation bet turn with a medium strength hand in position. You obviously don’t want to get check-raised because it puts you in an ugly spot, but at the same time, you want to protect/get value out of your hand. So, looking at an opponent’s turn c/r% can often be the overriding factor that determines the decision.

PSW: If you use an HUD for No Limit games, how is that it any different? Do you depend more heavily on the HUD for Limit or can you still get actual reads on players?

Tony: I don’t play a whole lot of No Limit cash games, but there are different stats that I look at. Some things that are very important in No Limit are how often your opponent is 3betting, how often they are calling/folding to 3bets, and also folding to 4bets. The latter stats are virtually useless in Limit because opponents are never folding to 3bets and 4bets.
Some days it feels like I've been standing forever, waiting for the bank teller to return so I can cash in all these Sklansky Bucks.
