Poker Spr Meaning

This concept is known as a stack to pot ratio or poker SPR. 1030 Tadas Peckaitis Tadas Peckaitis 2020-05-05 10:-10-21 12:02:55 GG and WP Meaning in. A stack to pot ratio describes the size of the effective stacks relative to the size of the pot. If the size of the pot is 10bb, and there are 40bb remaining stacks, there is an SPR of 4. (4:1) The simplest way to calculate the SPR is - SPR = Effective Stacks / Pot-size What is the relevance of SPRs?

The Stack-to-Pot Ratio, or SPR for short, is defined as the ratio of the effective stack-size divided by the size of the pot. It is important to know for betting and commitment purposes.

For example, if the effective stack size (smaller of the two stacks) is $200 and the pot is $50 the SPR is 4. This means you have enough to call or bet a pot size bet on the current street and the next one.

As the SPR gets smaller, the more committed to the hand you become, and vice versa the higher the SPR, the less committed you are, meaning you need a stronger hand to commit your stack with.

If you have $100 in your stack but the pot is $10, your Stack to Pot Ratio (SPR) is 100:10, or 10 and there is a lot of room to make a meaningful bet, get raised, or called, and take additional actions on later streets. I was reading Professional No-Limit Hold 'em and came across some interesting ideas. The most radical was limping or min-raising with strong hands like QQ or AK when you can't get a favorable SPR (4 but variable based on number of opponents and their tendencies) because you've got a stack of maybe 140 BB or so.

Ignition/Bovada hand histories show hole cards, at least for a limited window (I think from 24 hours after to 1 week after play). It'd be interesting to see Poker IQ ratings for a Hand History from Zone. I would be interested in seeing a 'player (villain) composite' built for the NL 5 level.

Actually, what I would find VERY interesting, would be to do maybe 10,000 hands with RFI's in the 2.5x range, and 10,000 hands with RFI's in the 3.5x range ('range' because it could be varied by position, but still with one batch being +1x or so), and then build composite opponent hand ranges from the HH, seeing how they change. Since Fast Fold is anonymized with new tables on each hand, camouflage plays go out the window. And varying from 2.4x to 3.4x (like 12c to 17c maybe) can have such a big effect downstream on SPR. So, you know, big cards like low SPR's, and spec hands like high SPR's, and all that...but what extra hands are opponents folding when you tack on the extra BB?

And here's a dilemma: a 2.5x (12c in NL5) sizing has its advantages in the micros. And lower sizes are workable on the button for a lot of reasons. But at what point are you giving the BB a pass to play a 60%+ range (and potentially spike whatever random 2 pair or draw)? I mean, you're at almost at 3:1 pot odds to see a flop, with a high SPR (>20).

So, optimized Fast Fold microstakes RFI ranges with holding-sizing bias...that would be nice...
