Statistics

FlopZoom's statistics pane can compare the vital statistics of up to four players simultaneously, covering intervals from just a single session to an entire career. You can select up to seven key statistics and filter the results for any specific seat or position range, and the number of opponents, from a full table to a short-handed table to heads-up. Click the statistics button at the top of the window to get here.

If you are graphing a session that you are playing, the statistics will automatically recalculate and redraw on each real time update. By default, updates are done every 15 seconds. You can change that interval, or turn real time updates off completely, in Preferences.

Choosing Players
The statistics pane automatically selects your login name for the current session in the first menu. Your statistics bars will be drawn in black. You can just show your own statistics, or you can choose up to four players from the current session and compare their statistics. The four players' bars will be shown in black, blue, red, and green so you can easily tell them apart.

 

Choosing Statistics
Just click on the buttons to choose statistics for the players you've chosen.

Here are the statistics you can choose and what they indicate:

Filtering Results
As in the analysis pane, you can filter the results to show statistics against different number of opponents: any number, full tables, short-handed, or heads-up.



And as in the session and analysis panes, you can choose any specific position...



...or a range of positions.



Finally, just as in the analysis pane, you can choose any interval, from a single session all the way to every session you've ever played.



When you've clicked the session interval button, clicking the previous or next button will select the previous or next session. If you've clicked the day, week, month, or year interval button, clicking the previous or next button will select all the sessions in the previous or next day, week, month, or year.

Instant Playback
Clicking on the statistics bars instantly puts the relevant hands into the playback pane's hands list. If you click on any statistics bar for any player, you can see the hands that FlopZoom is including in those statistics. For example, you can click on the hero player's "Chips in pot preflop" bar, click back to the playback pane, and you'll see that only the hands in which the hero voluntarily put chips in the pot preflop are loaded into the clickable list of hands.

Playback 1




Click any player's "Chips in pot preflop" bar
(or most other bars in the graph)...









Playback 2




...and all relevant hands for the bar's statistic
appear the playback pane hands list.







Raw numbers can't tell you the whole story, but playing back hands can. Seeing how, when, and where key hands were played is essential to improving your game. And to understanding your opponents' games. Instant playback of those key hands helps you do both. Fast.

Note that clicking the AF bar will load all hands in the session into the playback hands list. This is because AF (bets + raises divided by calls) is a statistical calculation over many hands in the session. Also note that you must first click the session interval button to enable the playback list feature.  


More Detail
Disabled buttons:
FlopZoom will gray out buttons when they aren't applicable. For example, in the "All seven statistics for four players" graph above, the full table button is grayed out. This is because that particular session was 6-handed and there were no full table hands in that session. (Full table hands require 7 players or more.)

Likewise, if the current session or sessions in an interval don't have any heads-up or short handed play, the heads-up and short handed buttons will be grayed out.


More about intervals:
If you choose the "session" interval and click the "+" or "-" session buttons, FlopZoom will simply go to the next or previous session. If any of the selected players are in the new session, they will remain selected in their player popup menu. If none of the selected players are in the new session, FlopZoom sets the first menu to the "hero player" of the session (your login name on the site.)

If you chose the day, week, month, or year interval and you click to the next or previous interval, FlopZoom will always go to an interval in which at least one of the selected players played a session. If there aren't any earlier or later sessions for those players, the "+" or "-" buttons (or both) will be disabled.

You can choose the week start day in FlopZoom's preferences dialog. It is set to Monday by default but you can choose Sunday if you prefer. You can also switch between "calendar" intervals and "range" intervals. For example, calendar mode would show you all all sessions in 2008, but range mode would show you all sessions 6 months before and 6 months after the current session.

The more sessions there are in the interval you've selected, the longer it will take FlopZoom to calculate your statistics. Several hundred sessions can be processed nearly instantly with a 2GHz or faster processor. But if you have thousands of sessions, it could take quite a while.
