    I am not sure if Mike has all the documentation together yet, or not, as it is a new beta feature. I will send him a link to this thread and ask him.

    I don't know if therre is any official documentation yet, but the default rules for each icon should help define them for you, according to the rules assigned to each icon.

    Options > Autorate

    Rock
    Mouse
    Fish
    Shark
    Calling Station
    ABC TAG
    Maniac
    Eagle

    These are all similar to the old PT2 Autorate icons, and are somewhat standard poker terms these days.

    Here are the rules from the current beta for 6 max holdem. I wasn't a big fan of auto-ratings, but now I've done them I find they work pretty well. I adjusted the rules for full ring and omaha games by making the vpip levels looser for omaha and tighter for full ring games. But I don't really play either.

    1 Rock
    2 whale...for those players so bad a fish just won't do. Fozzy isn't the first to call him a shark
    3 fish
    4 calling station
    5 slightly loose aggressive
    6 preflop maniac
    7 good tag
    8 abc tag. Like good tag but doesn't 3-bet.
    9 tag but we don't have enough samples to say whether he 3-bets like a good tag or like and abc tag.

    You guys should ask for some money back from the guy that modded those images IMO.

    If I had actually skimmed over the rules assigned to that icon, I hope I could have figured out he wasn't really supposed to be a shark.

    I see a DICE icon as well. What does that represent? The rule kinda makes me think of LAG player, but not sure. Looking forward to the documentation on this.

    They follow the old PT2 icons pretty closely. Dice = Gambler. I am not sure of the specifics though, because it doesn't show in that Auto rate window I pictured.

    That's what happens when the customer has an idea and won't let go. My bad on the whale.

    got the link for the old icons? Im trying to make one for fullring SNGs.

    nevermind, found it , but its so old... I hope someone makes an updated version. There might be changes after 2-3 years.
