Vs fish play

Hi,

I’m trying to analyze my game specifically against recreational players (“fish”) in PokerTracker 4, and I’d like to know the best way to set up the filters.

What I want to do is:

* Filter hands where I open raise (RFI) or 3-bet
* But only against players that qualify as “fish” (for example based on VPIP/PFR)

My questions are:

1. How can I define a “fish” properly in PT4 filters? (e.g. VPIP > X, PFR < Y, sample size, etc.)
2. Is there a way to combine positional filters (like RFI or 3-bet) with opponent stats in the same filter?
3. Should I be using “Player Filters” or “Hand Details” for this kind of analysis?
4. Any recommended filter setups to study EV vs recreational players in these spots?

My goal is to understand where I might be losing EV when isolating or 3-betting weaker players.

Thanks!

Something like that would require the building of a custom expression filter for use in a custom report:
