Mt Micro: Where does the money go

0

Analysing the first 10k hands by starting hand:

Suited Connectors
QJs-32s = -32.75
KQs = 12.10
AKs = 17.45

Unsuited Connectors
QJo-32o = -21.75
KQo = 0.65
AKo = 24.95

Pocket Pairs
AA-TT = 96.95
99-66 = 83.90
55-22 = -11.80

Suited Gappers
QTs-42s = 4.65
KJs = -16.90
AQs = 13.15

Unsuited Gappers
QTo - 42o = -37.85
KJo = -0.05
AQo = 15.95

Suited Aces
AJs-A9s = 17.35
A8s-A2s = -12.70

Unsuited Aces
AJo-A9o = -15.30
A8o-A2o = -19.00

Just taking the winning hands would give a starting range of A9s+, AQo+, 66+ which is 7.4% of hands. Add to this judicious stealing from the cutoff and button (say 40% and 60% of the time it's unopened which seems to be around 20% of the time) adds another 10% giving a VPIP of 17.5%, which isn't really that uber-nitty.

Of course, the sample size is too small to really draw firm conclusions (for example, A4s = +19.50 whereas A5s = -6.25) but it's food for thought.
