PLO: What Is Your VPIP/PFR?
This comes from a post I wrote on CardRunners, the PFR part having been adapted from Rollover2k’s comments.
As a rule, your VPIP (number of times you Voluntarily Put $ In the Pot, as a percentage) should be between 15 and 35, and your PFR (PreFlop Raise %) between 15 and 25. Some players manage to play a winning style with higher VPIPs against decent opposition, but it takes a lot of experience.
You can generally assume small stakes players spew when their VPIP is higher than 50.
The Aggression Factor — (Bet % + Raise %) / Call % — just gives a broad idea of how aggressive a player is, and you shouldn’t rely too heavily on it. Aggression Frequency is reported to be more accurate; I haven’t looked for them in my database, but I might provide similar estimates for it later on.
