Filter HUD by Effective Stack Size

Postby wangtangkiki » Wed Jul 04, 2012 3:19 am

I love the idea of this feature, but can it be changed to filter HUD by Hero's stack size instead? I only need to know how a villain plays when he has exactly 0-20 bb, not just 0-20 bb effective. The reason I suggest actual stack size is because sometimes there will be a short stack with only 15 bb, but everyone else will have 90 bb, and that can affect the hands that are shown on the HUD. This will happen quite frequently especially early in MTTs. I have a whole lot different raising range when I have 0-20 bb than when I have 100 bb, and the CO only has 15 bb, while the BTN/SB/BB all have 50bb+


Also could there be an option to add an antes filter too? I would like the HUD to allow us to select a stack size range and select if antes should be in effect or not. Allow the filter to be either/or.. like to allow the HUD to have the option of only showing hands with an ante, only showing hands without an ante, or showing hands no matter if there is an ante or not.

This would be useful also because people definitely play different, particularly in late position in MTTs, when there are antes. My shoving range on the BTN with 16 bb is a lot wider with antes than without. (These filters would allow me to select those specific hands where I had 16 bb with an ante)


Thanks!

In the new system a player's effective stack is based on the amount of chips they could lose in the remainder of the hand, based on the other players who haven't folded at the point of the player's first action on each street.
This will either be the player's entire stack if there are any players with more chips, or the size of the second highest stack if the player is deepest.
Therefore a single short-stacked player won't affect the filter unless they are the only player still involved.

I'll pass on your comments about antes to the development team.

Oh ok awesome. I just downloaded the new update. I thought there would be a button that you could click on the HUD drop down menu or maybe right click to show "Filter by effective stack size". Do you think something like this will be added in the future? Filter by Effective Stack Size could be a right click feature. You check it and it will filter the hands so you don't have to go to the options every time to change the filtering.
