Quick way to identify good tables.

[Lyrikz]

Hi. Im new here. Long time reader, first time poster.
I see people talk on here about choosing good tables to sit at when playing online. What are some good quick ways to judge if its a table you want to be sitting at?
Alot of big stacks?
Alot of small stacks?

Any info. is appreciated.

Depends on your style.

big stacks are good. fish w/ big stacks on your right is really good. sharks w/ big stacks on your left is really bad. shortstackers suck. nits on your left is good.

if you play LAG, tables with low VPIP are better
if you play TAG, tables with high VPIP are better

most tables have low vpips during the day and high at night.

thus, LAG in the light, TAG by night.

put some efort in, get a HUD, take notes on players when you have stats for them, use them to i.d players as weak or strong and what thier tendancies are so you can assess the situation with some accuracy when you first open the table.
Or use poker sixth sense if you play supported sites.
