I know my ptracker stats aren't really accurate until I hit about 10k hands, but I'm not doing so well at $50NL, I was wondering if there is signs I'm doing anything wrong. so here's my stats, maybe you all will see something i'm not:

$50 NL stats:
Total hands: 2,191
Vol. Put$ in the pot: 14.42
Vol. put$ in from SB: 25.90
Vol. put$ in from BB: 25.90
Folded SB to steal: 71.43%
Folded BB to steal: 75.00%
Att. to steal blinds: 29.75
Won $ When see flop: 48.50%
Amount won: -$121.94
BB/100: -5.57
Went to SD: 22.89
Won $ at SD: 42.86
PF Raise: 6.07%
Total Rake: 94.05

Player auto-ranking: Semi-Loose-Agressive/Agressive

does this look ok? I'm new to pokertracker and just don't know for sure what I should be looking for.

it''s way to short to say... I have sections of 2k hands that i'm -20bb/100 and other sections that i'm +20bb/100..

I know it's not what your looking for, but 2k isnt enough to have any idea yet

some sample hand history's would be helpful. some from a loosing session, as well as a winning session...

you got 2k hands there and you are down 2.5 buy-ins ish.... depending on how well your cards have been falling that could either be a major leak, or it could be nothing... more hands is the only way to tell. but, at the rate you are going, that might mean going down $750 bones. do you have the balls for that?

Greedo017 is on a distinguished road
 the only thing I notice is this stat

Won $ When see flop: 48.50%

This seems high to me, mine is in the low 30's. Maybe you are too aggressive? Its really too early to know, but hey its something maybe. Post some big losing hands so we can see if you're doing anything wrong in them.
i betcha that i got something you ain't got, that's called courage, it don't come from no liquor bottle, it ain't scotch

shouldnt this be different depending on the style of your game, 6max should have a higher %?? and it would vary due to the individual players you are up against.. ie. tight table.. high%, fishy table lower%

I havent yet purchased poker tracker so my database is only 1000 hands, my stats will be somewhat irrelevent..
villain goes AI
i call with a set (i have him owned)
i win pot
villain: **** this, this site is bullshit, ******* rigged, suck out ****

Does having a VP$IP of 14.5 really make you semi-loose? I'd say that's bordering on rock-like. PT has me as a SLA/A and my VP$IP is 28!

Also, your win at showdown figure is low (42%) - you should be aiming for 50%+ which may indicate you're going too far with sub-optimal hands, or underestimating/overbluffing other players who do have good hands. Have a look at these hands in particular and see if you can discover a hole, such as playing weak kickers, or over-relying on second pair, or chasing baby flushes.

2191 total hands * .14 = ~307 hands played.

307 * .485 = 149 W$WSF actual
307 * .330 = 101 W$WSF suggested

48 hands out of 2191 make that diffrence...

so if you were delt better than average hands 2% of the time then that covers the diffrence.

you really cant tell anything yet, dont change anything about your play BAISED on these numbers.

post hand histories to get advice till your at LEAST at 10k hands...

Not trying to be unhelpful, just trying to explain why these numbers are not helpful yet.

ok, I'll post again when I get up to 10k hands. It's already looking better at 4k hands, with me out of the red and my auto-rating up to Tight-Agressive/Agressive, which I feel is a more acurate description. I'm trying to play 1k hands a day now, so I should have more accurate numbers in a week or so.
