I am viewing the stats by position and for example the button has 1461 hands played and a 3bet% listed as 14.7, which should be 1461*0.147 = 215.

However when i keep everything the same and just filter for Did 3Bet = True there are 109 hands????

As a check i filtered for Did 3Bet = False and there are 1352 hands which adds up. However 109/1461 = 7.5% which is a lot less than 14.7%.

So i'd like to know which is the real 3bet% here.

All of the 3bet stats are wrong for every position, can somebody please explain why if you have an idea.

The 3bet% stat is based on the number of opportunities the player had to 3bet, not on the total number of hands played.

In your example, even though the button has played 1461 hands, he has had an opportunity to 3bet only 742 of them. 742*.147 = 109




So i'd like to know which is the real 3bet% here.

I would consider 14.7 to be the real 3bet%, because the other stat that you calculated, 7.5, is based on total hands and so is not as useful.

Yeah makes perfect sense,
i had a feeling i was missing something, i think the 40k hands i played this week fried my brain. Thanks for the response.
