I'm really interested in what everyone has to say. I know I'm in the + but I also know there is a lot of room for improvement. Thanks in advance.

Your numbers are pretty similar to mine, except you have a better winrate and your betting % on the flop is a bit larger in raised pots. I find myself checking OOP a lot if I raise and get multiple callers, do you bet into whoever, whenever?
Save your stories 'cuz they're all the same..

Total agression factor only 1.13.I think ur missing money on this.My total agression is about 3.0, but i think anything above 1.5 should be ok.

I raise a lot more pre-flop. It takes considerable restraint to get my PFR below 10% in just about any form of Hold'em.

Stats are too good to still be at 50NL.
Think big, or suck.

He should play the weak PokerStars 100NL & 200NL.

Would teach him "This guy sucks, I raise."

BTW, one of the best poker lessons I've ever learned:

I got PWNed in a blind war against a player I now know as one of the toughest players in the house. When he showed me his rags and scooped the pot, he smiled and said "I Play Bad." I immediatly added this 6th street play to my game.

bankIt, i have played you many, many times. i must say i avoid you when you bet out, but with solid cards, i can push you off a hand. unless, its the river...you rarely fold on the river, if you make it that far..

time to change it up a bit. get a little aggressive in places you think people are coming along for the ride. start to bet at scare cards a bit more against the tighter nits. steal blinds more.

all that said, you are one of the better players over at stars, and i dont play very often with you at my table.

seriously, i have no idea why you are still at 50 NL.

this is why i tell people to change their names in forums...people notice.

good job, move up. you stayed at 25NL too long. Dont make the mistake at 50NL. I think 100NL is the most profitable level.

Your stats are perfect textbook sample of how to
play TAG poker. Your position stats are simply
amazing.

I think if you open up your game a little bit you
could get even better winrate though...

You smell.

No. No. I'm not jealous at all. Why do you ask?

Great stats. Why fix what isn't broken? Better to move up and fix the leaks when waters coming out... I'd say.

But then I'd never have the patience to play 35k hands at a level once I was BR'd to move up.
Blah blah Op Blah blah

Faith in Jesus Christ is +EV. That is all.

good stats. i would try to get PFR up around the 10% range, but im also not killing $50nl, so .....

like Terry said, dont make the same mistake of staying at this level too long. Move up and do the same @ $100nl

why didnt we move up after 15k hands when we had won 1500bbs and had the roll for 100nl. *sigh*

As for your stats, there arent any problems, just learn to raise even more in lp and all pps and youll cruise through 100nl.

its possible that you are getting away from AA a little too much, your winrate should be at least 5
