HUD for tournaments

[nme]

So im pretty new to holdem manager, and i play mostly SnG's and MTT and im trying to make a clean looking hud with only stats usefull in tournaments. right now i have:

Hands / VPIP / Agression Factor

Are there any other stats that would be usefull in tourneys other then these?

And about colour ranges what colour ranges would u use? I dont really know when the stats are normaly considered tight or loos, and agrassive/passive.

I think only the stats i use at the moment are usefull in tourneys becouse for the rest of the stats you might need a bigger sample of hands then just the once you have seen in the current tournament.

Basicly, i want to be able to see if someone is Tight Agressive / Loose Agressive / Tight Passive / Loose Passive so any help with the ranges for that would be great.

Hi,
From my understanding you should be able to tell if someone is Tight or Loose by there VPIP. I find under 18 is tight, over 30 is loose but a lot depends on the site your playing at and the levels your playing.

As for colour coding that's a matter of personal preference, I like to use reds for warnings (i.e. I'm usually more worried about tight players than loose ones if I'm in a hand so low VPIPs get reds (warning), also if they fold to 100% of blind steals or CBs it 'green' light...). If they check raise a lot that's a red.

You might want to add Pre flop raise (PFR) in their, hi PFR and Agg tell you the Agressive/Passive part of it.

Of course that's only the beginning. I like adding in Check Raise as it's a factor of how tricky an opponent is likely to be.

Also fold to steal from small blind, fold to steal from big blind is good when it comes to stealing blinds, it also helps tell you if your maybe being too predictable and likely to get taken advantage of.

Lastly I like continuation bet and fold to flop continuation bet. The continuation bet tells you how likely your going to have to pay on the flop if you call preflop. The fold to CB tells you how likely a bluff will work or if you want a call, how likely they'll play along.

best o luck....

weta quite good thoughs, I'm also willing to understand which information I want to show on my HUD for Tourneys.

What's your view about resetting the value per blind level?

[weta]

Lol, I didn't know you could do that. I've only been using HEM for a while, I used other software until then (tournament indicator) and took notes for the other stuff I mentioned there on the frequency of those things (i.e. CBs/CRs, etc.)

I think that would be great.

For 4-5 players maybe add steals, would have to think about it for a while.

It would be especially good when I'm heads up I view it almost as a totally different game so you already know your tags from your lags and your passives but it would be good to start from scratch for HU. I'd be comfortable using a few more stats too as by then it's worth paying more attention to the specific table (if your multitabling that is...)

Hmmm, what would be good...
Preflop Raise
Fold to 2 bet
Fold to 3 bet
CR
CB, Fold to cont bet on flop/turn/riv (though I guess it doesn't get that far usually)

How do you set that to happen to reset itself? Any other ideas?

[weta]

Oh, one other thing that a reset would be good for, is as I've started seeing repeat players collecting there stats for higher blinds can be very different than there stats for lower blinds, I guess that's what you were getting at.

imo Attempt to steal is aslo good to have in HUD

[weta]

what ranges would you think over a sampling of hands would you consider valid?

At a guess, even when I'm I'm in prime stealing mode of say 70%, usually 35% of that range is valid for betting it's not valid for a resteal (is that what it's called, I forget).

There are some nice formulas that sheets does on Pokerxfactor but when multitabling there's usually not enough time.

thx

I´m absolute HM noob: Does HM filter blind lvls during live play?
Where do I set this option?

[weta]

Ya, me too (noob that is), anyone know how to do that?
