Poker With Software - PAHUD / GT+

I understand what you're saying, but we're also talking about extremes. The guy is a maniac after 50, it's pretty clear he'll stay that way. Dealing with the maniacs or tight-passives is easy.

For what it's worth, I'm not comfortable with 30 hands on someone, and I'm pretty sure that not many people would be. Then again, I'm not saying I NEED MORE than 1000, I'm saying I don't know. I'm asking what other people are comfortable with.

Gotcha.

And maybe it's because I ONLY use it to identify the extreme players that I don't care about all the guys in the middle. I simply don't use the software to make decisions for anyone with remotely "normal" looking numbers. I think doing so may be relying on it too much. And really, all those numbers are showing you is how he has played in the past. A guy who is 28/18 is just as likely to have raised you with AA on this hand as he is with 78s. Well, if he's me, anyway.

Like I said, I use the numbers to quickly identify the extreme players, and that's it. For everyone else, it's a non factor.
