Loosen up more from late position. When take snapshots of misc stats, make sure you have show only hand that were not folded, clicked. If it is, you can probably start folding overcards more on the river. Use the mentallity of fold now call next time. You check behind the turn and then wait for him to pop the river sort of line.

Actually, clicking that changes ABSOLUTELY nothing...pretty weird really, but meh.
Anyway, the thing is i HATE calling down with overcards. I only actually have half a dozen river calls with overcards when I put the donks on a donk bluff, and the rest are just either hands that have been checked through, missed draws on a checked river, or missed overcards on a checked river.
As I said, I don't like calling river bets with no pair.

I'm not sure what optimim is for BB defence, but folding 68% of the time seems pretty high.
You make a 5% jump in hands played from MP to CO (which is realtively huge since you only play 20% anyway), and I'm wondering what this might say about your W$ at SD stat.
with 1500 hands in each position, it seems that a difference between 48% and 70% W$@SDis too big to explain away with the sample size.
Do have any thoughts on the gap?

That is almost certainly random variance. I play between 1500-2000 hands almost every day and I find that my W$@SD varies between about 40(if I'm running horrible) to 75(if I'm running great). I'm pretty sure that my mentality doesn't change that much from day to day, so it has to be just normal variance.

I'm with nehmer on that one. I really wouldn't worry about it too much.
Overall, you seem a little on the tight side. At the 1/2 game, this is probably perfect. At the low stakes 6max game (high variance game with high variance players) I'm playing almost entirely cards, and I'd probably run about 20/13 as well. As you move up in stakes, you'll need to add in some more positional based play - but from what I've seen at 1/2, thats essentially fruitless right now. I think you're doing quite well. Keep it up

I don't know what I am doing different than you (other than playing full ring instead of 6-max), but at my lower stakes I am making almost as much money from the BB than I am from the button.
I guess I just make strong preflop plays with the best preflop position. Any thoughts, anyone?
EDIT: Sorry I just realized this was a limit thread. Thats probably the reason why I make more from the bb.

FWIW, I'm basing the jump on card variance as well since I honestly can not see it as anything else. I do losen up my starting hands slightly with every position gained, but nothing drastic.
As far as positional play is concerned, I do make the odd move here and there where I see a spot (tighter than average blinds who don't call down that much), but not too much since 1/2 is still pretty much a fish fest.

Your stats look awesome. I wouldn't mess with your blind play at all and not do anything different. The only thin I would do is loosen up some more and limp some marginal hands after a couple limpers.

What I've started doing about 5 days ago is calling BTN raises heads up with almost any two. Don't remember where exactly I read it, but getting 3.5-1 on a call is pretty much good for almost all but the worst of cards. Is this +EV considering if I don't hit my flop I fold or if the flop is all rags (237r) I might get aggro, and if I do, CR the flop and play from there? What about calling after BTN opened and SB called? I'm getting even better odds, but I am against two hands, does my equity get worse enough that it counterfeits my increased odds?
