i just started to go through your site and i mus say it is a great site, i never really kept statistics on how i played but as of October first will start keeping track of what, when and why i do the things i do.

i was just hoping to get feedback on if i'm playing too many hands or not, i know it doesn't show what i was playing with, but i figure i gotta start somewhere. so i got that stats from my last 2000 hands at PokerStars.

2000 hands played and saw flop:
- 39 times out of 244 while in small blind (15%)
- 148 times out of 244 while in big blind (60%)
- 285 times out of 1512 in other positions (18%)
- a total of 472 times out of 2000 (23%)

Pots won at showdown - 59 out of 113 (52%)
Pots won without showdown - 65


can i get some feedback on these stats or are they just too vague for anything to be said about them

It looks like you're showing down with the second best hand more often than you probably should. Otherwise things look ok. You seem to be appropriately tight preflop.

Limt = Fixed limit games where you can only raise so much. (As oppsed to No Limit Holdem)
Stakes = How much the buy in is.
