I have someone's stats shows VPIP at Btn 20, PFR at Btn 17, Steal from Btn 24. Why is the steal bigger than vpip? And I thought even PFR should include all the steal.

TY!

VPIP and PFR are calculated on all hands you play (unless folded to you in the BB, when you dont/cant play). The Steal stat is only calculated on hands where you have the 'opportunity' to steal. You can't steal every single hand so that stat doesnt use every hand for its numbers, only the applicable hands.
