Poker eyes are watching and hand review.

I had my first limited success in poker in a while in tournament poker. I took twelfth place in the 5.50 buyin knock out tourny with 1350 ppl. Not too bad – In that tournament I used for the first time a site that I was just recently intoduced to Pokerratings.com. A free site. I was curious if there any of you out there that use this tool. And if so what are the primary data that u pull from it?
I have been createing player notes like this

5.5 knockout tourny

Tourny Stats: prizes 102 Profit less then 0 ROI -46 ABI 2 AFS 291 ITM 15/113

Tourny Stats: prizes 2.3K Profit 113 ROI 5 ABI 8 AFS 692 ITM 52/261


This tells me that the first player is Primary a tight player at Low limits maybe just making his start in online play, while the second player is a medium stakes player that is well aware of good poker principals and a LAG player.
This is information that I can get on the fly, so when I am switched to a new table I can find out quickly some info about the players two to my immidiate left and right instantly. Of course in poker Every hand is independent, but how would you use this information?

A nother thing I cant help but think, is this information a violation of our privacy? Or is poker becoming to form what is a equivalent rating system campaired to chess? If you seated with a Grandmaster your less likely to confront him with risky gambit plays as he will out play you.

This site is also a Mega LOG of all your individual tournament play. And will allow you to asses wether you play well or not. Before you know it I am ppl are going to be lookin up your stats before considering whether or not to call your raises.

Im going to try to generate some conversations about a few hands – Is there another way that I could have played that hand that would have created a better outcome?

the bountys I collected were not relavent enough, only about 6 – 7 bucks. But it would have been more had my significant risk with AQ placed me in a mega stack position.


The next hand I thought I might try and publically examine was the following weak PP 33. this hand turned in to a set Luckly, If I had raised the SB might have passed on the hand (maybe). But in reality with a M of 12 or so, can I really afford to raise with 33 to isolate?
If I had raised I might have cleaned up with this bottem set as the pot would have allowed him to call my later bets.
