My PT stats are showing that I am positive in all positions (6 max) at the moment even in the blinds which I thought was a bit weird considering most of peoples PT stats seem to show a large loss in the blinds (as would be expected). How common is this and can I expect a very large swing to the negative side shortly? Also I seem to be loosing playing AQs & AQo they really stand out, I have stopped raising so much with these to see If I can improve on them.

Yeah, you're running well. Real well. You're going to have to tighten way up if you want to actually beat the game though.

Do you feel it is possible for a 34/12 player to be a long term winner of the 6max game if they have strong post-flop play? or is it simply that you need to be a 25/15 player to win in the long run.

I have seen 6-max players that were decent winners over samples much larger than yours with stats of around 34/12. Just because you can win with a certain preflop style though doesn't mean that you wouldn't be a bigger winner with a different preflop style though

IIn a true 6 max game, 34/12 is much too loose/weak to take advantage of your opponents. I'm sure you could beat the game and at your game possibly beat the rake, but not as much as you could.
I guess its how much you want to win. You might be able to do 1 BB/100 tops at that rate but nowhere near the optimal 2 bb/100.
