might be horrible question......

lets say your first to act at a 10 hand table. what is the avg hand your up against, so basically what would you need to go all in against the nine random hands... and what if the first player folded and you were 2nd to act. so there were eight left

does that make sense?

is there a use for this kind of stat.



everyone's gonna hate me.....

If you hand is worthy of going all in and your in early position then you are going to want to trap another player by just min calling or small raise and hoping to get a reraise then push all in..I don't think this really answers your question but just throwing it out there

you need to know stack sizes and structure.

if you are short stacked you are about to hit the blinds so if you have any decent hand it's time to get it in the middle.

if it's early in a deep stack you never want to shove. if you are pushing in 200BB that is nuts.

early in a short stack is different.

in a rebuy you are way wide when it comes to shoving.

The question is too vague for a single answer unfortunately.

Should be pretty simple I guess.

If you're first to act with 9 people in front of you someone should have the top 100/9% (11,1%) of their range which according to pokerstove is:

A10o+, A9s+, k10s+, kqo, q10s+ and 77+

with 8 people it's 100/8% (12,5) which is the same plus:

kjo+ and j10s

7 people would be the above plus:

A7s+ and QJo

6 is:

A5s+ and k10o

2 people would be 50% of all the hands and ofc against one opponent you're up against ATC.

Don't know if it's very useful or applicable easily but that should be right
