How much value lost by not having PAHUD?
 

I got a new computer, got my PT working and PAHUD, but then something corrupted a file and i had to get everything wiped and start over. i havent reloaded either programs yet because im thinking PT caused the corrupt file because i wasnt compacting the databases, but it could have been something else too... Now my question is, to people that use PAHUD, did it add ALOT to your game/results or is it just nice for certain situations?

IMO anything that can make even the slightest +EV change in play is well worth it.

didnt add a ton to my game, but nice to know who folds to continuation bets, and who calls most of them. its also nice when u are 4+ tabling and u are able to see who the maniacs are right away.

I agree completely, but I am not sure what stats I should display, and how exactly they are to e deciphered(although I guess the more I use it, the more familiar I will become... Any pointers would be nice

i believe its an advantage to have but not a necessity if you are an experienced multi tabler. i find it to be a good tool but some players dont like to use it at all.

If you multi-table, it is certainly worth more than it costs.

If the stats are used properly and you do in fact make a +EV change in play, and you do not mis-use the stats to make even greater -EV plays, then it is fine. Only get it if you know how to interpret relavent stats and use them properly.

By relavent stats I mean stats that have any significance. If you only have 50 hands on a player, his stats are useless. If you have 2000 hands on another player but 95% of them are from level 1, dont count on his stats on the bubble.

This is untrue. I can usually get a decent minimal read on everyone at the table in about an orbitt and have a reasonable profile by 50 hands. Is it 100% accurate? No. Is it good enough to inform many decisions? Absolutely.

I would agree with this. You can usually get a good idea of how they play after an orbit or 2. I think it's just important not to base everything on the stats with such a small sample size. But PAHUD has definetly been +EV for me even with the generally small amount of data you get on opponents at the lower levels.
