HUD stats useless now?

With the player pool getting smaller and regs constantly adapting, I’m starting to wonder if HUD stats are losing value. All these people talk about making decisions with databases but if half the table changes usernames every session or tables are anonymous, then you’re not exactly tracking much except pure guesses. I see more guys just watching showdowns and relying on gut with recent history anyway.

Feels like you’re better off tightening up and making simple, repeatable moves than investing energy in some old spreadsheet that isn’t keeping up. When I play blackjack or roulette, I prioritize what I can act on right now, not a wall of stats from sessions ago. Curious how others are actually approaching it these days since online just keeps getting weirder.

im probably the wrong kind of disciplined for this bc i used to export everything and stare at filters like i was doing taxes and tbh the big thing i learned was my hud wasnt the leak my schedule was. id play too many tables when i was tired chase back after a bad blackjack session then act like a redline graph was gonna explain it. if rake is high and games are thinner rn, one punted hour because ur tilted costs more than whatever tiny edge u squeeze from old popups. i still keep basic numbers on screen but mostly so i dont lie to myself about how im playing that day not because the database is some oracle

the edge is usually in table count and quit timing now, not another popup stat!!! tired autopilot costs more than bad reads, same as sports betting live chase

Anonymous tables and username swaps, yesss what a combo lol. 3-bet stat over 40 hands is basically napkin math at that point 😒

Then your HUD says nit while they're punting. Seen the same in roulette chat.
