    Default Just got PT3. GRIND TIME

    So i just got PT3 and imported my old hands. Loving the graphs btw . I have a few questions about the HUD though

    1. The HUD player profiling is everywhere. Instead of being directly under the player's name, I see it floating around in all different places. Is there a way to fix this? it just gets annoying on the eyes after a while

    2. VP/PR/AF. what does that mean?

    1. Right click and hold on the stat you want to move and just drag it.
    2. % of time player vouluntarily puts $$ in the pot, also known as VPIP / % of time player raises pre flop, also PFR / agression factor - a measure of how aggressive a player is postflop ( i think ).

    1. is there more of a setting/config to place it in the correct spot? i dont like to move it around for every table i'm in for each player

    2. does this include limping? or only raising.

    Im opedipus bitch, the original balla.
    1) What you need to do is open a table and place the HUD stats under the correct player's name. Then click on the little PT button that pops up on the table (the little grayish button with the green circle in it, if you know what I'm talking about). After clicking the button, then click "Save Layout". THat should save it so that when you open other tables it will start to pop up right where it needs to. And if that doesn't work then you need to go and start messing with your perferred seating in the HUD options portion of PT3.

    2) As sil said, VP is VP$IP. This is when a player voluntarily puts money into the pot. So if you limp you are voluntarily putting money in the pot. If you complete in the SB, you are voluntarily putting money in the pot. However, if you check in the BB I don't think it goes toward this stat.

    PFR is preflop raise. It's how often you raise preflop. Which of course if you raise you are also voluntarily putting money in the pot. Therefor your PFR will always be equal to or less than your VPIP.

    AF is the agression factor (frequency??). It's a measure of how aggressive a player is postflop. It can be a little tricky and I'm not certain of how it works exactly, but the higher the AF the more aggressive and the lower the more passive. I could be off here so if I am someone correct me, but I've heard that a player with an AF of around 2 is playing pretty straight-forward poker betting when he has it and folding when he doesn't. So anything higher than that and he is making some moves and anything lower and he is playing passively.

    So, for example. You have a player who is 40/4/1. This means he is playing 40% of his hands, and raising 4% of those hands. And he is playing pretty passively postflop.

    can someone elaborate on the AF? is 2 a decent enough threshold to judge whether they're making moves or actually having it?

    What's yours? Do you usually have it?
