Aggression Factor (AF)

A HUD statistic calculated as (bets + raises) divided by calls. An aggression factor above 2 indicates an aggressive player, while below 1 indicates a passive player. AF helps you predict whether opponents are likely to bet, raise, or call in various situations, which is crucial for making correct counter-strategies.

Example

Player X has an aggression factor of 0.5, meaning they call twice as often as they bet or raise. When they do bet, take it seriously — they are usually not bluffing.
