Just thought of this tonight while scrubbin toilets and what not. You know, the -EV thing I do for a living while not playing poker. Anyhow, no idea if this has already been thought of or in development but I think if PT/PAHUD ever get around to making their software better they really should include this idea whether it's mine or somebody else's.
I call it the Positional Awareness Factor! There could be 2 of them - one for vpip and one for PFR. I'm not sure how it should be calculated but there is definitely a way. Basically the PAF should give an arbitrary number similar to AF but but for the purpose of giving an indication of how tight an oppontent is UTG and in the blinds opposed to on the button. Suppose the higher the number this is the greater difference there is between a player's vpip UTG and OTB which should provide additional information to help narrow villain's hand ranges. Suppose you are against an opponent who runs 12/10/3 at 6max and he raises under the gun. If he has a very high PAF factor you have to figure that his hand is likely much narrower than 10%. Maybe 5%. 3betting this guy light with 99 is probably a bad idea in that case. If our opponent showed a PAF factor which was lower indicating that a raising hand is a raising hand then we could play accordingly.
Just a thought, hope somebody reads this and says ya that's a cool idea. Ship it.
