Tracker statistics: how each one is calculated
VPIP, 3-bet, c-bet, WTSD, BB/100: for every statistic in the tracker, what counts as an action, what counts as an opportunity, and the edge cases.
The tracker's Statistics page shows around fifty frequencies, grouped into categories. This page walks through those categories one by one and gives, for each row, the exact definition the calculation uses. Two trackers can show two different "3-bet" numbers for the same hands: the difference is always in the denominator.
How to read a number
Every statistic has the same shape:
Frequency = actions ÷ opportunities × 100, rounded to one decimal.
An opportunity is a hand where you were in a position to take the action. An action is an opportunity where you took it. Hover a cell in the tracker: the tooltip gives both raw counts, for example 412 / 1830.
The columns
| Column | What it reads |
|---|---|
| TOTAL | Every opportunity of the row |
| IP / OOP | The same, split by whether you were in or out of position |
| UTG … BB | Preflop only: the row split by seat |
| FLOP / TURN / RIVER | Postflop only: the row's version on each street |
| BB/100 | The row's impact on your winrate |
The vocabulary of the definitions
- Action opportunity: you had at least one decision to make on the street. When a hand goes all-in the board still runs out, but nobody can bet any more: it is not an opportunity for any action statistic (c-bet, donk, probe, check-raise…).
- Street reached: the card was dealt and you had not folded before it. This is the base of the showdown statistics only (WTSD, WWSF), where an all-in hand counts normally.
- Unopened pot: nobody has bet on the street when the action reaches you. You could therefore bet.
- Facing a bet: a bet forces you to answer, whether it is already in when you act or comes after your check. Check then fold is a fold facing a bet.
- Street checked through: you checked and nobody bet behind you.
- Preflop aggressor: the last preflop raiser. The whole c-bet family is read against them. For donk, probe and stab, the "aggressor" of a street is the last player to bet or raise on the previous street.
- In position (IP): last to act among the players still in the hand on that street.
- First decision: a few preflop statistics look at the situation at your first voluntary action (RFI, limp, iso, cold call, open-shove).
- Pot type: limped (no preflop raise), SRP (one raise), 3-bet pot (two raises or more: 4-bet pots and beyond are folded into it).
The BB/100 column
Read it as an impact on your winrate, not as the winrate of the hands where you took the action:
sum of your net winnings over the hands where you took the action ÷ your total hands played × 100
The winrate of the subset alone would be selection-biased (the hands where you 4-bet win hundreds of BB/100, which teaches nothing). Divided by total volume, the figure says what the action earns or costs your overall winrate, and rows become comparable. A +3 on the 3-Bet row does not mean "my 3-bets win 3 BB/100" but "the hands where I 3-bet add 3 BB/100 to my winrate". The column is green when positive, red when negative, and absent for an opponent: their net result is unknown to us.
Sample size and colours
A cell resting on fewer than 200 opportunities is dimmed. That is a display threshold, not a reliability threshold: above it the figure is not "validated", only less fragile. A few hundred hands are enough to read a VPIP or a PFR; a 3-bet or a c-bet takes a few thousand hands; a river statistic or a Fold to 4-Bet, tens of thousands.
Frequencies are not colour-coded, on purpose: a high Fold to c-bet is exploitable the same way a high VPIP is. What matters is the deviation from a reference, not the value. The tracker leaves the judgement to you.
What is never mixed
Every figure is computed within one format (cash, tournament, spin) and one table environment: heads-up, 3-max, 4 to 6 players, 7 players and more. The environment comes from the number of players actually dealt into the hand, not the nominal table size. The "All" view sums the environments, only when you ask for it.
Preflop
Profile
VPIP
Voluntarily Put money In Pot
- Action
- You call, bet or raise at least once preflop
- Opportunities
- Every hand you are dealt
Posting a blind or an ante is not voluntary. A walk in the big blind counts as an opportunity, not as an action. A limp counts.
PFR
Preflop Raise
- Action
- You raise at least once preflop
- Opportunities
- Every hand you are dealt
Open, iso, 3-bet, 4-bet or shove: any raise counts. PFR is therefore always lower than or equal to VPIP.
Opening & steal
RFI (open)
Raise First In
- Action
- Your first action is a raise
- Opportunities
- Nobody has entered the pot before your first decision: no limp, no raise
Only the first raise of the hand is an open. Limping and then re-raising an iso is a limp-raise, not an RFI.
Steal
- Action
- Your first action is a raise
- Opportunities
- Same spot as RFI, but only from the cutoff, the button and the small blind
The small blind counts as a steal seat.
3-Bet & squeeze
3-Bet
- Action
- You make the second preflop raise
- Opportunities
- You act with exactly one raise in, and you are not the raiser
Whether you folded, called or raised, the opportunity counts. Facing a 3-bet or a 4-bet is not a 3-bet opportunity: exactly one raise has to be in.
3-Bet vs steal
- Action
- You 3-bet
- Opportunities
- You are in the SB or BB, the CO, button or SB opened with no limper before them, and the action reaches you with no call or raise in between
The resteal. Read it alongside the Blind defense category, which shares the same denominator.
Squeeze
- Action
- You 3-bet
- Opportunities
- You act with one raise in and at least one player who has already called it
The denominator is the squeeze spot itself: an open, at least one player who called it, and the action on you. This is the classic trackers' definition, so the numbers compare.
Fold to 3-Bet
- Action
- You fold to the 3-bet
- Opportunities
- You opened, and the action comes back to you facing a 3-bet
The denominator only keeps the opens that actually faced a 3-bet, with the action back on you. If a third player 4-bets before you, you are answering a 4-bet: the hand does not enter here. Neither does a cold 4-bet, made without having opened.
4-Bet
4-Bet
- Action
- You make the third preflop raise
- Opportunities
- You opened, and the action comes back to you facing a 3-bet
Category shown in cash only. In tournaments and spins it gives way to Short stacks.
Fold to 4-Bet
- Action
- You fold to the 4-bet
- Opportunities
- You 3-bet, and the action comes back to you facing a 4-bet
A slow sample to build: think tens of thousands of hands.
Blind defense
Fold vs steal
- Action
- You fold preflop
- Opportunities
- You are in the SB or BB, the CO, button or SB opened with no limper before them, and the action reaches you with no call or raise in between
A UTG or MP open is not a steal: it does not enter here. If the small blind calls or 3-bets before you, you are no longer defending against a bare steal: the hand leaves the category.
Call vs steal
- Action
- You call preflop
- Opportunities
- You are in the SB or BB, the CO, button or SB opened with no limper before them, and the action reaches you with no call or raise in between
Fold vs steal, Call vs steal and 3-Bet vs steal describe the same spot: between the three of them they cover your answers to a steal.
Limp & cold-call
Limp
- Action
- Your first action is a call, whatever happens next
- Opportunities
- Nobody has entered the pot before your first decision: no limp, no raise
Completing the small blind is a limp, and a limp-raise is still a limp. An over-limp, behind another limper, does not enter here: the opportunity is reserved for the first player in.
Cold call
- Action
- Your first action is a call
- Opportunities
- Exactly one raise is in at your first decision, and you are not in the blinds
A cold call is made with no money already in: defending a blind is not one. The SB and BB columns of this row are therefore empty, and defending against a steal has its own category.
Iso vs limp
- Action
- You raise
- Opportunities
- At least one limper and no raise before your first decision
Limp-raise
- Action
- You raise after limping
- Opportunities
- All your first-in limps
The denominator includes limps that were never raised. The figure reads as a share of your limps, not as a reaction to an iso.
Short stacks
Open-shove
- Action
- Your first action is an all-in raise
- Opportunities
- Nobody has entered the pot before your first decision: no limp, no raise
Category shown in tournaments and spins. The denominator is the same as RFI: the figure reads as the share of your opening opportunities played as a shove. Opening to a normal size and then calling a jam is not an open-shove.
Call vs shove
- Action
- You call the all-in
- Opportunities
- An opponent moves all-in preflop and the action reaches you, whether or not it is your first decision
Opening and then facing a jam counts just like facing one straight away: what is read is your answer to the first all-in of the hand.
Limp-fold
- Action
- You fold
- Opportunities
- Your first-in limps that actually faced a raise
Unlike Limp-raise, a limp nobody raised does not count: there was nothing to fold to.
Postflop
Postflop rows never name a street: the FLOP, TURN or RIVER column says where the action happens. A row that only exists on one street leaves the other columns empty. Outside tournaments, a filter separates raised pots from limped pots.
One rule holds for the whole section: an opportunity means you could act. A hand that went all-in, or a pot already opened when it was your turn to bet, is never a missed opportunity.
Initiative
C-Bet
Rows “SRP” and “3-Bet pot”
- Action
- You bet the flop
- Opportunities
- Preflop aggressor, you have a decision on the flop and nobody has bet before you
Turn column · 2nd barrel
- Action
- You bet the turn
- Opportunities
- You c-bet the flop as the preflop aggressor, and nobody has bet before you on the turn
River column · 3rd barrel
- Action
- You bet the river
- Opportunities
- Preflop aggressor, you bet flop and turn, and nobody has bet before you on the river
If you are donked into, you no longer have the option to c-bet: the hand is read by Fold vs probe / donk. Turn and River follow the strict definition, chained barrels: an aggressor who checks the flop and then bets the turn makes a delayed c-bet, not a turn c-bet. Both rows read the same stat, one in single-raised pots, the other in 3-bet pots and beyond.
Delayed c-bet
- Action
- You bet the turn
- Opportunities
- Preflop aggressor, the flop checked through, and nobody has bet before you on the turn
Checking the flop is not enough: a flop check-call or check-raise is not a c-bet being delayed. And if the opponent bets the turn before you, there is nothing left to delay.
Double delayed c-bet
- Action
- You bet the river
- Opportunities
- Preflop aggressor, the flop and the turn both checked through, and nobody has bet before you on the river
Donk
- Action
- You bet into the aggressor on the flop
- Opportunities
- You are not the aggressor, nobody has bet, and the aggressor has not acted yet
Betting before the aggressor has acted, whatever your seat. If they have already checked, your bet is a stab.
Probe
- Action
- You bet the turn
- Opportunities
- The flop checked through; on the turn you are not the aggressor, nobody has bet, and the aggressor has not acted yet
The aggressor skipped their c-bet, you take the lead on the turn. Calling a c-bet and then betting the turn is not a probe: it is a turn donk, and it does not enter here.
Stab (missed c-bet)
- Action
- You bet the flop
- Opportunities
- You are not the aggressor, nobody has bet, and the aggressor checked before you
River column
- Action
- You bet the river
- Opportunities
- You are not the aggressor, nobody has bet the river, and the aggressor gave up: the turn checked through, or they have just checked the river
The Turn column shows Probe. On the flop, the opportunity only exists once the aggressor has checked: if you act before them, it is a donk opportunity. A limped pot has no aggressor: any bet into an unopened flop is a stab, and the out-of-position turn lead after a checked flop is a probe.
Bet (unopened pot)
- Action
- You bet the river
- Opportunities
- You have a decision on the river and nobody has bet before you
Every role included: whether you are the aggressor or not.
Overbet
- Action
- Your river bet exceeds 130% of the pot
- Opportunities
- The rivers where you bet
A share of your river bets, not of your rivers. The size is measured against the pot before the bet. A raise is not counted: it is sized against a pot that already holds the opponent's bet, which is not the same quantity.
Reaction
Fold to c-bet
Rows “SRP” and “3-Bet pot”
- Action
- You fold to the c-bet
- Opportunities
- The preflop aggressor bets the flop first and the action reaches you, before or after your check, with no raise in between
Turn column
- Action
- You fold to the 2nd barrel
- Opportunities
- The preflop aggressor c-bet the flop, bets the turn first again, and the action reaches you with no raise in between
River column · facing the 3rd barrel
- Action
- You fold to the 3rd barrel
- Opportunities
- The preflop aggressor bet flop and turn, bets the river first again, and the action reaches you with no raise in between
Check then fold out of position counts: it is the most common case. Only the preflop aggressor's bet is a c-bet: facing another player's donk or stab, the hand does not enter here. If a player raises the c-bet before the action reaches you, you are answering a raise, and the hand does not enter either. The three columns follow the same chain as the C-Bet row: c-bet, 2nd barrel, 3rd barrel.
Check-raise
- Action
- You check then raise the flop
- Opportunities
- You checked the flop, then a bet came
A flop where nobody bets after your check is not an opportunity. The denominator is the classic trackers' one: call, fold or raise after a check.
Float
- Action
- You bet the turn
- Opportunities
- In position, you called a flop bet, and the opponent checks the turn
If the opponent bets the turn again, there is no float opportunity: the hand is read by Fold after call.
Fold after call
- Action
- You fold the turn
- Opportunities
- You called the flop without ever betting or raising, reached the turn, and faced a turn bet
The row a double-barrelling opponent is aiming at. Check then fold on the turn is counted.
Fold vs stab
- Action
- You fold the flop
- Opportunities
- Preflop aggressor, you checked the flop then faced a bet
What happens once you have given up the c-bet. Holds for every pot type and for any bet faced after your check.
Raise vs stab
- Action
- You raise the flop (check-raise included)
- Opportunities
- Preflop aggressor, you checked the flop then faced a bet
Fold vs probe / donk
- Action
- You fold the flop
- Opportunities
- Preflop aggressor, a bet is already in at your first decision on the flop
Turn column · facing the probe
- Action
- You fold the turn
- Opportunities
- Preflop aggressor, you checked the flop, and a bet is already in at your first decision on the turn
Two distinct statistics shown on one row: the donk in the Flop column, the probe in the Turn column. The TOTAL, IP and OOP columns read the donk alone.
Showdown & tendencies
WWSF
Won When Saw Flop
- Action
- You collect a share of the pot
- Opportunities
- Every hand where you reach the flop
A split pot counts as won: the test is collecting a share of the pot, not ending with a positive net result.
WTSD
Went To Showdown
- Action
- Your cards are shown at showdown
- Opportunities
- Every hand where you reach the flop
A called preflop all-in counts: the board is run out, so the flop is reached.
W$SD
Won money at Showdown
- Action
- You collect a share of the pot, chops included
- Opportunities
- Every hand where you go to showdown
Same test as WWSF: a chop counts as won. The row exists for your opponents too, since the hand history says who collected the pot.
Aggression (freq.)
- Action
- You bet or raise at least once on the street
- Opportunities
- Every postflop street where you did something other than check: bet, raise, call or fold
An aggression frequency, not the Aggression Factor. It is counted per street, not per action: a street where you bet then raise counts once. A street checked through is not an opportunity. The row has no BB/100, which would be meaningless here.
The winnings figures
They appear above the curves and in session tracking, not in the tables.
| Figure | Calculation |
|---|---|
| Net | Pot collected minus everything you put into the hand, blinds and antes included |
| Winrate (BB/100) | Net in BB ÷ hands played × 100 |
| All-in EV (BB/100) | Same calculation, with all-in results replaced by their expectation |
| Showdown / Non-showdown | Net split by whether the hand went to showdown |
| Net / h, Hands / h | Cash only, always in euros |
| Rake | Shown as an amount, never coloured as a loss |
In tournaments and spins, BB/100 measures the change of your stack in big blinds. Blinds go up and a chip has no fixed monetary value: that figure does not compare with a cash winrate.
All-in EV
EV = equity × (total pot − rake) − your amount invested
Equity is computed at the moment the money goes in, using both players' cards. It is exact with one or two cards to come. For a preflop all-in it is a Monte Carlo estimate over 15,000 run-outs. Ties count as half.
The calculation only covers heads-up all-ins, both players' cards known, with at least one card to come. In every other case (multiway pots, side pots, cards not shown) the hand's EV equals its actual result. The EV curve is therefore a hybrid: adjusted on those all-ins, identical to the winnings curve everywhere else. It is not an estimate of the EV of all your hands.
Aggression Factor
The Players page shows an AF on top of the aggression frequency: (bets + raises) ÷ calls, postflop, counted per action. A player who bets, gets raised and re-raises weighs two aggressive actions on that street. It is not a percentage and it is unbounded: 2.0 means two aggressive actions for every call. This is the classic trackers' definition, so the numbers compare.
An opponent's statistics
The same tables exist for every opponent, with the same definitions and the same splits, W$SD included. Three differences:
- no BB/100 column, since their net result is unknown;
- in the replayer's stats window, the "SRP" and "3-Bet pot" rows are merged and the pot type becomes a filter;
- their cells do not open the underlying hands: their cards are only known to us at showdown.
Below 500 hands observed on a player, a warning reminds you that their frequencies have not converged. It is a general marker: as with your own numbers, what counts is each row's number of opportunities. To put them to work in an analysis, see the villain's range.
