Pokerstars: VPP per hand
 
I know this has been asked before, but searching is difficult as loads of threads have been made that have all the key words but don't answer the question. Also, if it hasn't been done since the games changed due to the new law it's a good time to go over it.

I'm wondering what the rate of VPP per hand is at the various stakes. If just a few people post for each limit, we should have them all pretty quickly. It doesn't take a very large sample at all for this to converge, a few thousand hands should do. It will vary person to person, but probably only a bit.

Here is the breakdown from Pokerstars site:
First Frequent Player Point (FPP) is awarded for playing a hand in which the rake reaches:

* $0.40 for fixed limit poker games with stakes $1/$2 and lower
* $0.40 for NL/PL poker games with blinds $1/$2 and lower
* $1.00 for all other games

Second FPP is awarded for playing a hand in which the rake reaches:

* $2.00 for all 6-max tables (this doesn't apply for games being played 6- handed at 10/9/8 player tables - just 6-max tables)
* $3.00 for all other tables

Third FPP is awarded for playing a hand in which the rake reaches $5.00.

To find this in Pokertracker, after filtering so you only have a given limit (and full or 6 max), in the upper right corner it says "Only show hands with at least [ ] rake." Enter 2.00 if you play 6 max and 3 if you play full, then click filter and get all. Remember the number of games displayed displayed. If you play limit 1/2 or lower or NL 1/2 blinds or lower, enter .40 into the filter and redo it, otherwise enter 1.00. Again click filter and get all. Add the number of games displayed to the number you got before and divide by the total number of games.

Starting in mid december, I have played 5,385 hands of NL50 (blinds .25/.5). I earned .257 VPP per hand over that stretch.

Any others, including repeating the same limit, that people want to post would be appreciated.

I must be retarded, but I cant find the filter. Is it at the summary tab in pokertracker?

Sorry, it's "Game Notes". You get only one limit by filtering in preferences.
