    Default Why does PT cut my BB/100 hands in half??

    In my last 8,553 Hands at $25NL on Party I've won $609.33 and it says my BB/100 is 14.25.

    Calculation:
    BB/100 = [$609.33/(8,553/100)]/$0.25 = 4 * 609.33/85.53 = 28.50

    Why does my BB/100 say 14.25???

    It does the same thing for Prima.

    Does anyone else experience this?

    Ty Renton, I figured BB stood for Big Blind, as long as I know it means double I can calculate my hourly rate from it. The rest is just symantics.

    ya pokertrackers really meant for limit, where BB means big bet which is twice the big blind (small bet)

    Ty Renton, but I thing WildBob makes a good point. Statistically 8k is not very many, I'm pretty sure there is some positive variance here. I've played 5,470 hands on the Prima network ($0.10/$0.20 Blinds) and my BB/100 there is 10.43. I've played 60,000 hands on BoDog but PT dosn't work for BoDog so I'd have to count up my cashouts and figure it out manually....yuck. BoDog is by far the fishiest of the sites IMO, too bad I can't use PT on it. I've decided that I will play mostly on sites where I can use PT to track my progress and continually analyse and improve my game. BoDog may be better for short term results, but I think in the long run I'm better off playing on trackable sites. Another good thing about Prima sites is the ability to use my newly discovered ( thanks to FTR ) PokerAce Hud, a very powerful tool, I highly reccomend it.

    my longterm 25nl winrate was roughly 8bb/100

    that was something like 25k hands or so.

    I just checked my 1st 11,586 hands of $25NL on Party, BB/100 = 1.33 lol. Most of this was before I started using PT, after my 1st few sessions with PT I took a day off to go over my stats and I made some major changes to my game. Some of it was aslo getting used to the switch from $10NL to $25NL. NL Ring as a whole is new to me, I specialized in SnGs for years, before that it was online limit ring ( highest I got was 5/10 ). Before all of that I played B & M limit working my up from 1/2 to 30/60, now it seems insane to play at 1 table where I'm lucky to get 30 hands/hour, not to mention gas and hotels eating away at my bankroll. I could make more/hour playing 6 tables of 3/6 online than I ever could playing 30/60, and I'd need 1/10 the bankroll.

    Does it work well with miniview too? I find it strange that other sites don't implement this; it's great for multitabling (no useless chairs/chips/images).

    It dosn't work well for mini-view, but i have no problem 4 tabling on normal view with 1280 x 1024 screen resolution. I can handle a little overlap. Instantly knowing which players are rocks and which player are raising machines is well worth the extra trouble.

    One of the best things about using Poker Tracker on Prima is that you don't have to be in the game for it to track the other players. I run PT 24/7 keeping multiple tables minimized. I'm Tracking my opponts play while I sleep!! I can't think of a single better way to get an edge on the competition!!
