Default Game Selection

What do you look for in game selection at sites that aren't PokerTracker compatible? I am talking about 3/6NL to 10/20NL.

Well that would defently be an answer diffrent to almost everyone, that depends on what kind of player u are, and what kind of players u want to meet, how loose or how tight u want the table to be. U should look for a game with players who seams like something u can feast on... But also it can be good if all players aint playing as each other, u prbly want a table to have diffrent playing styles, drawers who u can gain on, tights u can bluff off and so on... Sometimes though at the higher levels when its not to good players, u can find tables where everyone is playing a very tight pre-flop game, where u can make alot just blind steeling cause they are so easy to read atleast preflop for example. And in the lower u cand find maniactables where u want to play it tight and bust them hard... But guess u would know this if u play at those levels.. Check average pot-size(can give u info of bluffing or calling ability), avereage preflops seen (if low equals tight, if high its prbly a loose table or it may be a weak table with players who dont dare to raise pre-flop) and averige hand per hour doesnt tell u toomuch except maybe telling u if the other values is based on a just seated table or a table been playing for while.... guess those are the usual stats shown for most sites some has more some has maybe even less

I look for sites that are PT compatible. Bodog makes me piss myself timing out holding the nuts every other hand.

However, after a good losing streak I generally just go out and buy a few titaniumm pens and the pain all melts away.

I look for names that I don't recognize. I remember the names of most players I've played against more than once. I don't even know how to use PT for game selection.
