3bet from a position to a position

[pccarballo]

I would like to know if this kind of thing exists.

I wanna know how many times a player 3bets an UTG player from UTG+1 and how many times he does it on button. I guees this stat would need a loot of hands to be build up..Can it be done (if it doesn´t exist)?

It can't be done perfectly because if someone else joins the hand, it will come up actively wrong.

For example, if someone raises UTG and you 3bet OTB, and the BB 4-bets, it would actually look like a 3bet vs the BB.

Though I suppose you could only look at hands where there was no 4betting, but it would cut your sample size down quite a bit and potentially cut out hands that you actually do care about.

And when you make the stat 3bet not vs a blind steal (which I think is 3betting against players who do not open on CO, button or SB) theres no such problem?

Right because all we're checking for there is that it isn't a steal - a steal is defined in the database, and we can see if you're facing one (and thus if you're not facing one). But we don't actually know where the raise is coming from if someone else takes any other action.
