actually, can someone tell me the button-opening frequency for the average midlimit player? I assumed 45%.

Define average. I'm 30/21 and I'm opening ~45%.

Really? That's sorta low, no?

i think average player is ~ 36/16, right? So one thing we could do is sort for players with similar stats and check their button opening freq. Alternatively we could write a simple query to check all the hands where we aren't button and see how often button steals, given opportunity. Or somebody could just tell me the answer [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

It might be low because I ran it through stove and only included hands that I open almost every time. I didnt include the stuff like 97o, J6s, 65s that I fold sometimes depending on the blinds.

Im curious as to where you got 36/16 from.
