This refers to pokertracker stats on a player, often displayed with PAHud or something similar.

While the order may vary, the highest number is probably a VPIP (% of hands they play), the next number is likely to be % of hands raised pre-flop, and the other number (an integer) the number of hands of that player that has been observed.

in relation to your second post, the number of hands have simply been dropped off.

eg, 14/12 means that they voluntary put chips into the pot on 14% of hands, and they raise pre-flop on 12% of hands.

In particular, that player obviously only rarely plays a hand without being a pre-flop raiser.

There are 3 common interations:


VPIP/PFRaise

VPIP/PFRaise/Aggression

VPIP/PFRaise/Aggression/Number of hands


VPIP is the percentage of hands played, not including the Big Blind.

PFRaise is the percentage of hands *raised* - this is NOT relative to VPIP, so this figure is always lower than VPIP.

Aggression Factor is

(number of BETS + number of Raises)/(number of CALLS).

Thus an AF of 2 means that the player bets or raises twice as often as they call, fo rthe hand they play.


Number of hands is the number of hands the player was dealt IN, not the number they put money in with.



VPIP: A figure over 20 - 24 is considered loose. Over 50 is a lunatic.

PFR: a stat like 25/25 means they are raising every single hand they put money in. a 25/12 means they are raising with about half the hands they are putting money in.

AF: a 2 is aggressive. a .5 is very passive. a 3 is a maniac.


These are generalizations of course. YMMV

to add onto the previous post, these things will vary from forum to forum.


eg, in the STT forum (where I post most) , there's no need for aggression as there is so little post flop action.

instead, you're more likely to see a number of the % of pre-flop raises that the villain calls.
