Within the framework of this article, we will describe the main statistics of the HUD, with the help of which we can get the most useful information about the gaming tendencies of our opponents, as well as talk about their competent interpretation.
As an example, we will use my HUD, which looks like this.
This HUD consists of four rows, each of which includes stats, combined according to their semantic meaning for the exploitation of opponents on a particular street. For some of the stats, specially created pop-ups are assigned, which include more detailed information regarding a particular statistic.
Let's move on to considering the stats and pop-ups of each row of this HUD.
Row I
Player nickname (Name)- the player's nickname is needed to identify which of the opponents at the table owns this or that information displayed in the HUD.
Total Hands- the number of samples per opponents is extremely important, since the more hands we have, the more reliable the information collected on the opponent is. For example, if we have, say, 1000 hands per opponent, then the statistics collected on the basis of this sample will correspond more to the opponent's real playing tendencies than if there were, for example, 100 hands. In poker, it is extremely important when making a decision. , pay close attention to how reliable the information available is.
By clicking on any of the stats from the first row, we will call a pop-up containing information regarding our opponent's winrate.
Winrate (BB / 100 hands)- shows the number of big blinds won per 100 hands. For an objective assessment of an opponent's win rate, at least 100,000 hands are required.
Row II
VPIP - Voluntary Put $ In the Pot (%)- voluntarily deposited money in the bank - the percentage of hands where you made an unforced bet preflop to the total number of hands. In other words, all of your calls and raises are affected by this stat, but it does not check in the big blind and fold in the small blind. Perhaps this is the most important characteristic that allows you to divide players into loose and tight.
When characterizing a particular opponent, VPIP is usually indicated as the first statistical value. This indicator becomes more or less objective after 30-45 hands; for a more accurate understanding of the opponent's playing tendencies, it is desirable to have about 150 hands.
PFR - Preflop Raise (%)- preflop raise - shows the percentage of hands out of their total number in which the player raised preflop. This characteristic is the second most important, since with its help we can divide the players into passive and aggressive.
By clicking on the VPIP or PFR stats, we will see a pop-up reflecting information regarding the opponent's open-raise frequency from each position. This is quite important as there is a significant difference between making adjustments on our side against a player who opens, for example, an 8% range from UTG, and against a player whose open-raise rate is 20% from that position.
This pop-up also shows the isolate frequencies of the limpers (how often the player isolates the limper from a particular position), the indicators of open calls (the frequency of calling from one position or another against a raise), as well as the values of limp, limp-fold, limp-call and limp-3bet.
AF - Agression Factor- aggression factor - a stat that expresses the numerical value of a player's aggression postflop. HM2 calculates this stat using the following formula: (% bets +% raises) /% calls.
The aggression factor can be displayed separately on each street postflop, however, as a rule, the average (total) value is used. This characteristic allows you to assess the degree of aggressiveness of the player after preflop. For more or less objective AF data on individual streets, you should have about 500 hands, and for an estimate of total AF, about 200.
After clicking on this stat, a pop-up will open containing information on AF on each of the streets, as well as the values of the Agg Freq indicator.
Agg Freq, unlike AF, takes checks and passes into account. In other words, it is the percentage of active actions. For example, if we bet 3 times on the flop, raised - 1 and folded - 6, then the Agg Freq will be 40%.
3-bet- this statistic reflects information on how often a player 3-bets preflop, that is, re-raises someone's raise (preflop, the blinds are considered the first bet, open-raise - the second, and finally, 3-bet - third).
Using this indicator, we can determine the frequency and range of 3-betting of this or that opponent. It is important to understand that the overall 3-bet rate differs significantly from the opponent's 3-bet rate from different positions. For example, a player will 3-bet an open-raise from early position with a narrower range than he would have done in, say, BB when the button is trying to steal the blinds.
By clicking on this stat, we will see a pop-up informing us about the opponent's playing tendencies through a 3-bet: 3-betting in position and out of position, 3-bet from a particular position, 3-bet from a specific position against a specific position. It also provides information regarding squeeze, opponent's open 4-bets, folds to 4-bets, and 5-bet frequency.
Fold to 3-bet Is a stat that displays how often a player folds preflop when faced with a 3-bet. With this stat, we can exploit players whose fold to 3-bet is overstated, making instant profits by re-raising preflop.
This stat is also necessary to determine the appropriateness and benefits of a squeeze on our side against the open-raiser and subsequent caller / s, as we can see how often the first and second fold when faced with a re-raise.
If Villain has a low fold to 3-bet like 20, then we can easily expand our preflop reraising range for value. However, do not forget that this stat should be used in conjunction with the statistic of the open-raise. For example, an 11/7 opponent can easily have a fold to 3-bet around 40 percent since his initial open-raising range is quite narrow, so in this case we cannot start to widen our range for value 3-bet, as we might. with a player whose open-raise frequency is, say, 50% and fold to 3-bet 30%
The pop-up assigned to this stat informs us about how the player folds to 3-bet in a particular position, shows folds to the opponent's squeeze as a caller and raiser, the frequency of 4-bets IP and OOP, folds to 5-bet , the frequency of 4-bets after a collision with a squeeze.
Flop c / f to CB 3bet Pot OOP- A stat that displays the frequency of a player's folding to a continuation bet in situations where he checks in a 3-bet pot on the flop.
The pop-up of this stat shows detailed information on a player's postflop tendencies in regular and 3-bet OOP pots.
Row III
Steal- reflects the percentage of attempts to steal the blinds from stealing positions (CO and BTN) or, in other words, the percentage of open-raise with CO and BTN. This stat helps us understand if a player is taking advantage of their position by expanding their opening ranges from early to late positions.
Also, thanks to this stat, we can build optimal resteal ranges from the blinds. For example, if our opponent has a high steal value, and also often falls to 3-bet, then we can significantly expand our defense ranges from the positions of the small and big blinds by 3-betting.
SB Fold to BTN Steal- The percentage of hands that your opponent folds while in the small blind against a steal from the button or cut-off.
BB Fold to BTN Steal- The percentage of hands that your opponent folds while in the big blind against a steal from the button or cut-off.
BB Fold vs SB Steal- the frequency of folding the big blind to the steal from the small blind.
TOT ReSteal- a stat reflecting the frequency of 3-betting from the blinds to the steal from stylized positions.
BTN Fold vs Resteal- the frequency of a player's folding when he is on the button and receives a 3-bet from the players in the blinds.
By clicking on any of these stats, we will see a pop-up with detailed information about playing in steal / resteel situations.
Flop Fold to CB 3bet Pot IP- the frequency of folding a player in a 3-bet pot in position on the flop to a continuation bet.
The pop-up of this stat shows detailed information on a player's postflop tendencies in regular and 3-bet IP pots.
Row IV
Flop CB IP- the frequency of the player's continuation bet in position. This indicator allows us to make the right decisions both preflop and postflop, providing an opportunity to plan our game from street to street.
For example, if a tight opponent with 40% flop c-bet raises from early position, and we call on the button with a low pocket pair for set value, then we can win the pot postflop without just making our set. If a board comes out, into which the opponent's range falls poorly, and he refuses to c-bet (and this will happen often, because the opponent c-bets only 40% - that is, very straightforward - with a hit), then we can easily steal this the pot by betting on the opponent's missed continuation bet.
Flop cb oop- similar to the previous stat, but for OOP situations.
Flop Fold to CB Rsd Pot IP- the frequency of folding to the opponent's continuation bet in position. If we see that this indicator has a high value, then we can quite often bet with air, making a profit through bluffing. If the fold is low, then we can value-bet our opponent quite openly, without fear of folding at a high frequency.
Flop Check-Fold to CB Rsd Pot OOP- the frequency of folding to opponent's continuation bet out of position.
Flop Cbet-Fold IP Single Raised- the frequency of a player's folding after placing a continuation bet in a position for a raise.
Flop donk bet- reflects the frequency of the player's donk-betting. Donk-bet is a bet on the aggressor, which is made out of position on him.
The pop-up of this stat displays donk indicators for heads-up situations and multi-way pots, and also reflects how often the opponent folds to a raise after placing a donk, folds himself when faced with a donk, and raises such a bet.
WTSD%- a stat reflecting the frequency of the player's income before the showdown. If a player has a high WTSD%, then he will tend to drag a lot of medium hands to showdown. However, this stat should be used in conjunction with VPIP, as there is a huge difference between a player with a VPIP of 14 and WTSD% 25, and a player with a VPIP of 65 and the same WTSD%. Understandably, the first player at showdown will have much stronger hands than the fish, which will go to showdown with downright weak hands.
The pop-up of this stat reflects indicators that are often used in conjunction with WTSD%: WWSF and W $ SD.
WWSF- shows how often the player wins the pot after seeing the flop. For example, if an opponent has a WWSF of less than 40, then it would be correct to assume that the opponent is rarely bluffing; if this indicator is, say, higher than 48, then the opponent will often take the pot by bluffing.
W $ SD- shows how often the player wins the pot at showdown (average 50-51%). The higher the W $ SD, the less often our opponent will bluff to showdown with stronger hands.
This pop-up also displays W $ SD F / T / R Raise and F / T / R Check / raise- Thanks to these stats, you can see how often your opponent wins at showdown by raising or checking / raising on each street.
Of course, all of these stats should be used in conjunction with each other, and also have a fairly large sample, especially if you want to know, for example, how often your opponent wins the pot after checking / raising the river.
For clarity, consider an example: you received a flop cbet raise from an opponent with WTSD - 27, WWSF - 43 and W $ SD (flop raise) - 54 and wonder what to do with pocket aces. Based on the opponent's stats, this would be a fairly simple fold: Villain shows up relatively often, wins when he sees the flop - rarely, and wins after raising the flop at showdown - often. If the opponent had the following values of these indicators, then we could catch him bluffing: WTSD - 25 W $ WSF - 48 and W $ SD (flop raise) - 47.

You know all the features and functions of Holdem Manager 2 and now you need to decide whether you will use it while playing poker. The correct decision in this case is the key to the success of your game.
Holdem Manager 2, aka HM 2, is one of the most popular poker programs in the world, and one of the oldest and most enduring. If we mention it in the context of statistical software, it is one of the two leaders (along with PokerTracker).
Today Holdem Manager 2 has evolved into more than just a poker program for collecting statistics and analyzing it; it is a whole platform with an extensive network of additional products and connections with all the major poker rooms on the planet.
HM in a nutshell 2
Playing in any poker room, the player generates many text files that contain information about the hands played - hand histories. But this data by itself is useless.
Holdem Manager 2, like any other similar program, collects these files into one large database and provides the player with the opportunity to analyze them and further accumulate them.
What is the price HM2, how to buy and where to download?
The pleasure is not cheap. I would like to note right away that it is worth it, with interest. HM 2 will serve you faithfully for years to come. All this is relevant for those who are going to play at a more or less serious level (even if these are micro-stakes).
So, there are two options for buying software:
The standard way: go to the site, choose one of three points, buy. Holdem Manager 2 comes in three flavors:
- Small Stakes Version(Low Limits) - $ 59.99;
- Pro Version(All limits) - $ 99.99;
- ProCombo2: Hold‘Em+ Omaha(Two main products in one) - $ 159.99
The low limit version will collect data up to $ 0.25- $ 0.50 No Limit and Pot-Limit Hold'em, $ 0.50- $ 1 Limit Hold'em and up to $ 22 in MTT and SNG.
The difference between the Pro version and Combo 2 is that in the second case the player buys two products, not one: Holdem Manager 2 and Omaha Manager 2. After payment, you can download the program to your computer and use it within the purchased license.
2. Through the poker room
HM 2 also gives you the opportunity to purchase their products shareware. It works as follows. Take PokerStars as an example.
If you do not have an account at PokerStars yet, download it through the link on the HM 2 website, when registering in the window "How did you hear about PokerStars?" drive in the code holdemsoftware, make a deposit of at least $ 50 with code Stars600 , and then enter your nickname on the software site.
Then you have to earn 225 room points. After all this, you will have $ 75 in the Holdem Manager store. You can spend them on the purchase of any of the products (if enough). After that, download the program and use it in the same way as if you bought a license at your own expense.
A similar procedure can be done in other rooms working with HM.
Be that as it may, it is still impossible to do without spending "hard-earned money".
Main functions of HM 2
Well, enough of the bad news, let's move on to the basic features of the program.
The "face" of the program, so to speak. Heads-Up Display displays statistics of all your opponents. There are a huge number of indicators, the player himself chooses which ones he needs; removes or adds as needed.
For less experienced users, ready-made "assemblies" are provided: for example, "according to Harrington".
Naturally, everything is customizable, including font size, font type, colors, etc.
In action, the HUD looks something like this:
The players' nicknames are shown in red (or rather, their first four symbols), blue - the number of hands, and green - statistics. When you dial the hands, the statistics will change automatically.
When you hover over the player's nickname, a rather large window appears with detailed data on all streets. It is also configurable and necessary for more rare situations. Let's say you need to see how your opponent reacted to the reraise given to him on the river before; here an additional window will do.
2. Reports
One of the main tabs in HM 2. Here the player spends most of his time looking at the results of cash sessions, tournaments, and their analysis.
There is also access to all the graphical toolkit of the program. For example, what is your revenue versus net income; how much rakeback has been played; how the profit changes when playing at one and several tables.
3. Opponents)
There is a special place in HM 2 for analyzing opponents. If you meet someone very often, it makes sense to study his game thoroughly: what he does in 4-bet pots, how he plays with connectors or pockets, if squeezes, then with what.
4. Apps
Holdem Manager 2 itself is a first-class software, but it can also be improved with additional software applications. All of them are purchased separately and perform more highly specialized functions.
For example, TableNinja improves the performance of multitables by making it easier to manage a large number of gaming tables. The standard version will cost $ 60.
Is there some more:
- Leak Buster(indicates errors of the cash player);
- TableScanner(a very useful thing for finding tables with a lot of fish);
- SitNGoWizard(utility for honing skills in SNG);
- NoteCaddy(adds notes for players, improving the HUD);
- TiltBreaker(saves from tilt, monitors the bankroll).
Again, these programs are not cheap, but incredibly useful in certain situations.
5. Replayer)
A classic function that has survived from the very first versions of Holdem Manager. allows you to play hands, and not be content with dry statistical information. A great way to see things that haven't been seen before.
Technical features
If you already have the first version of HM, you don't need to buy the second one - you can upgrade, but for money. For example, it costs $ 40 to upgrade to the low-limit version.
I would also like to clarify that HM 2 does not work on Mac, or rather, does not have a specialized version for this platform. All Apple aficionados are going to have to do some heavy lifting on the launch of HM 2.
Instead of a conclusion
If you are going to play poker competently, correctly, using all available means, you definitely cannot do without Holdem Manager 2 or its equivalent. This is the must-have for poker software. None of the professional online grinders can imagine themselves without HM, PokerTracker and the like.
An important part of any poker tracker is HUD, which allows you to evaluate your opponents right during the game based on the collected statistics and, taking into account all known data, to make the most advantageous decision. For ease of perception, all the collected information is additionally recalculated, sorted and eventually converted into stats, which will be discussed in this article.
In total, there are hundreds of different statistical indicators, but often many of them are either too narrowly focused, or simply separately highlight the opponent's action in a certain position. During the game, we often have only a few seconds to make a decision, and therefore we need to display in the HUD and analyze only the most important stats. Let's break them down using the example of PekarStasHUD v4.0, which looks like this at the table:
The first line contains the main pre-flop stats such as VPIP / PFR / Total 3bet / Total Fold to 3bet OOP & IP. These stats will accumulate for you the fastest, so after a few rounds of distributions we can at least partially rely on their values. Let's take a closer look at what they mean and how they turn out.
VPIP
Literally stands for “voluntarily invested money in the bank”, that is, how often the player made an unforced bet on the pre-flop of the total number of hands. Accordingly, this indicator will include open-raises with 3-bets and any calls on the pre-flop, but the posting of the blinds will not be taken into account.
PFR
It means pre-flop raises and shows how often the player did not just put money into the pot, but did it aggressively, that is, he raised his opponent's previous bet. This indicator will include both open-raises (which are formally an over-increase of the player's bet on the BB), as well as 3-bets, 4-bets and squeezes.
The VPIP and PFR indicators are actually paired and only by using them together we can understand at least roughly the opponent's range and how he plays it.
3bet
Expands our understanding of opponent's aggression and pre-flop ranges by showing how often a player raises after an open-raise. Remember, formally the first pre-flop bet is always the big blind, so any open-raise is actually a second bet, and the next raise will be a 3-bet.
Together with the VPIP / PFR indicators, it allows us to get a fairly accurate idea of the opponent's range already from the pre-flop. It allows us both to exploit an opponent with an overestimated indicator, different from, and vice versa, it allows us to refuse in a number of cases from a 3-bet, which will not be advisable.
Fold to 3bet
When we 3-bet ourselves, it is quite useful for us to know how often our opponent is inclined to give up in such cases. It is important to use this indicator in conjunction with the PFR indicator. For example, two opponents may have the same 3-bet fold rate of 20%. However, in the first case, it will be a player with PFR = 5%, that is, with a very narrow and strong pre-flop range, and the second with a 40% range.
Accordingly, against the first player, it makes sense to 3-bet only the strongest starters, and against the second, on the contrary, we can expand the 3-bet range for value, since the opponent is not inclined to fold and will come to the post-flop with very weak hands.
Some players can play completely differently in position and out of position, so the HUD displays two indicators for both cases. While in position, they may start calling their opponent's bets wider with suitable hands, or simply hoping to outplay him post-flop.
Clarification of stat by position
All of the above stats are averaged values for all positions, which is often referred to as TOT (that is, Total) in Holdem Manager 2. In other words, if a player folds to 3-bet in position (IP) 25% of hands, and out of position (OOP) 75% of hands, then the average value between them will be 50%, which in fact will not give us correct information in either the first or the second. case.
When we have only a few dozen hands on our opponent, we simply won't have enough sample to understand the difference in tendencies, but if we play with, then we have the opportunity to more accurately understand the tendencies of our opponent, and for this we usually use Popup windows.
As you can see, with a PFR of 21, this player can play both narrower ranges in early position, and wider in the case of late positions.
The second line is aimed at post-flop play, namely the first street of bets - the flop. Accordingly, it displays such stats as Flop Cbet, Flop Fold to Сbet, Flop Raise Cbet IP, Flop Check-Raise Cbet OOP, as well as a stat related to the pre-flop BB Fold vs SB Steal.
Flop cbet
This indicator serves to display the frequency of the opponent's continuation of aggression on the post-flop. If the player was the last one to raise the bet on the previous street, then any bet from him on the next street will be considered a continuation of his aggression, that is, a continuation bet.
It is important to understand that if a player, for example, simply called a pre-flop bet and bets on the flop, then this action will not apply to a continuation bet, since it is considered a different type of bet (Donk bet).
Flop Fold to Сbet
Accordingly, this stat will show us the frequency of the opponent's folds in response to the continuation bet. Often times, players will also tend to fold more out of position than in position, which can also be viewed in the pop-up or simply kept in mind.
Flop Raise Cbet IP
If we cbet out of position, then our opponent will have the opportunity to re-raise our bet, which some players may actively use. Accordingly, in this case, we should reduce the number of bluff bets and bets with average value (which will not withstand an opponent's re-raise) and vice versa, bet more actively with our value hands.
Flop Check-Raise Cbet OOP
When we c-bet in position, keep in mind that the player who checked before can still re-raise our bet, which is actually a check-raise. It, like the previous stat, will be useful for us in order to choose the most profitable line of play on the flop.
BB Fold vs SB Steal
The game of BB against SB often has its own specifics, as well as the math of style, therefore it deserves a separate stat in the HUD. With a minimal style with SB, only 50% of folds will be enough for us to get auto-profit, and in the case of a steal of 2.5 BB, 57% of fold equity is needed, which allows us to quite often use this opportunity to easily exploit our opponents.
The third line contains stats concerning decisions on the turn Turn Cbet and Turn Fold to Cbet, as well as several pre-flop stat Total 4-bet, Total Fold to 4bet and of course the number of hands per opponent, which makes us understand how reliable our choice is. on the opponent.
Turn Cbet & Fold Cbet
These stats actually work in a similar way to the flop, but it is important to keep in mind what exactly counts as a continuation bet. The turn will only be c-bet if you also c-bet the previous street.
A similar statement applies to folding on the turn. If you checked the flop and bet on the turn, then it is not necessary that your opponent will fold as often as if you were betting both the flop and the turn.
4bet & Fold t0 4bet
Pre-flop play hasn't ended on 3-bets for a long time, especially when it comes to the blind war. Many players tend to defend against exploitative 3-bets by 4-betting, that is, by re-raising to 3-bets.
The 4-bet is worth considering in addition to folding to 3-bet before 3-betting your opponent. Folding to 4-bets should also be judged in addition to your 3-betting range, because as with folds to 3-bets, your opponent's ranges can end up being completely different.
Other useful stats
There are a few more statistics that are quite important in evaluating your opponent, these are WTSD, W $ SD and WWSF stats. They comprehensively show us how often the opponent tends to go to showdown and with which hands are strong.
WTSD
This stat literally means how often the opponent comes to showdown with those hands with which he voluntarily invested money in the bank. A player with a high WTSD is likely to have fairly weak hands at showdown with which he will often lose. It is also important to consider in the assessment how wide the opponent's initial range, that is, the VPIP, is.
So, for example, the strength of the hands of a player with VPIP 10% and WTSD 25% will be several times higher than that of a player with VPIP 50% and a similar income indicator before showdown.
W $ SD
The percentage of the player's winnings at showdown. This stat itself is quite dependent on the variance and is worth looking at only in combination with other stats, but it can additionally show us the strength of the hands with which the player comes to showdown.
However, it is important to understand that for example a player with VPIP 60%, WTSD 35%, as well as high W $ SD, does not necessarily have a strong showdown range and could just be lucky. Just like you shouldn't open up with weak opponent hands with a low pre-flop range and low WTSD just because the W $ SD indicator shows you the value.<35%. Такой игрок наоборот скорее всего поймал за последнее время несколько кулеров и бедбитов, что занизило его процент выигрыша.

If we decipher this abbreviation, then it will mean Won When Saw Flop, that is, how often the opponent wins when he sees the flop. Indirectly, this indicator helps us understand how much the opponent is prone to bluffs on the post-flop, the higher this indicator, the better this player is able to squeeze the opponent out of the bank and take money without showing up.
Of course, these are far from all the stats that Holdem Manager 2 or any other tracker has, but this set will be enough for an initial assessment of an opponent. More specific stats will already be rather secondary and can always be viewed in the popup.
