This might actually be an interesting topic to discuss. What exactly is a nit these days?

Almost without exception, the best regs at PLO100-200 6max have a VPIP of ~23-27%, PFR 12-18% IMHO. Outside Vroom, I define a nit as someone with a sub-20 VPIP, Inside... it's just common sense . Is 3betting the deciding factor? Should a true LAGtard be 3betting at least 15%? many regs have it between 3-8%, most at the lower end of the spectrum.

Since we're playing PLO, pre-flop is usually just a partial indicator of nittiness. Some players see a flop with half of their starting hands, but go into a c/c mode with hands like bottom 2 + FD and treat them as bluff-catchers. Are they less of a nit than a pre-flop TAG who shoves top pair + FD OTF? It's all relative...

I find this really interesting assuming reg = TAG, generally. I was under the impression that the higher ends of these ranges was the standard for "good". Being on the lowish ends myself, it's good to know I'm perhaps closer to "standard TAG" stats PF than I thought.

Just to clarify, 23/13/5 is an acceptable PF style?

IMO, sounds pretty solid. Some players get away with 35/20/12, but in my experience they spew a ton at the end of the day. Such stats might become playable at 200BB+, but with std 100BB stacks you're relying on FE that just isn't there at these stakes.

Waiting for CHRONIC to bring on the flames, he should def do the MADGREEK impersonation again .

Sweet, this has made my day.

I'm still ~22/11/3.5, but having the target be only a few pips and not thinking I have to get to 28/20/10 is huge.

You shouldn't be too bothered about your pre-flop stats, just be situationally/positionally aware. Playing the stats you're playing now can easily be justified if you're playing vs loose/passive opposition who rarely fold. You might try to add stuff like iso-3betting the fish in position with KJ97ds or the like, but in general, tight is right. You shouldn't play a wider range without good hand-reading skills and the ability to pick up a lot of small/medium pots w/o SD.

Or just move up to where they respect your raises

LOOOOOL!

If its not IP2G complaining how bad he's running, its him complaining how good others run \

The only person I know that wins 30BI in a day and dumps 25 the next. I still struggle to conceptualise how that happens

FWIW I was not 100% on that you posted on this exact forum and figured that if you are you will read this thread and if not well, you find the stars. Posted cuz I remembered that your name came up earlier (hence maybe stupid to go with the stars but..)
