Context-dependent display of stats

Postby Demetroid » Tue Nov 27, 2012 11:25 am

What I've been really missing in PT3 and now in PT4 is to get the data displayed in the HUD to be context-dependent to the current situtation.

Say UTG player open-raises in a cash-game, I'd love to see his VPIP/PFR stats at this moment filtered for his current position, UTG, not averages for all positions.
Another example, it's get folded to the button who open-raises - now his context-dependent PFR becomes Attempt To Steal stat basically.

Hope, you get the idea. The only thing PT4 needs to know to be able to do that is to know which position the players will have during the next hand. But that can be pretty obviously derived from the last imported hand from that table, right?

Yet another example of the same thing would be to display stats like "Fold Blind to Steal" only for the players who are currently sitting on the blinds.

In PT4 you did add filtering for number of players and stack depths, so basically it is adding filtering by position.
Does it sound reasonable?

This is something I've been thinking also. The problem is that you can't get 100% perfection from the previous hand. Consider for example a dude not posting his BB or SB on the next hand, or a new dude posting his BB the first time, PT can't possibly anticipate those events from the previous hand.

So, to be useful, IMHO this would have to have a new live stat to go along with it, e.g. name it "live_player_position" that would display the position of the player where PT THINKS the player is. Hero can then look at it and see if that is the case or if the position is wrong.

Why not have stat groups on the HUD that would be positionally dependent? For example, "SB Villain Stats" that would be shown only on the villain that PT estimates being at the SB on the current hand. That would be way enough for lots of purposes.

What if the position is wrong tho, which definitely is the case for lots of cash hands when players come and go, what would you want to see then?

Love it. And this should always work in Fast Fold games because PT4 knows the players with their position before the hand starts.
