one brief thing from an "outsider" to NL games these days. regarding all the pf limping and giving of implieds at ubermicros, LIMP WITH THEM.

a 1:.5 ratio in vpip/pfr should be fine (while you learn post flop poker). a 1:.75 ratio guarantees you squat if your post flop game sux and the donks are cold calling all day. the vpip/pfr ratios can be very much overrated by stat junkies. they are not an automatic formula for winning.

in fact, they indicate how much you like to fold to big 3bets.
