Unfortunately, the player types in the tab are the default player types and do not change when you make changes to the “Player Type” inside the HUD. Are there any plans to change this?

It also doesn’t appear that changing the player types even works in the HUD.

It’s not very useful to look at a pool of players when many of those players have a small sample like on ignition. For example, a player who happened to play 25 vpip, 20 pfr, 10 3bet, and 35agg over a 15 hand sample size would be included in the standard reg player type. That’s an extremely small sample to draw any conclusions about how they truly play. The same player could just as easily look like a nit or a nutball over that same sample size.

Personally, I’d like to adjust the Player Types to have a slightly higher sample size, and ONLY use VPIP and PRF for criteria as those will converge sooner with a small sample.

Including 3-bet and agg on an anonymous site with small samples, one could draw wildly inaccurate conclusions about those player types.
