I know I'm not much good at poker and am seeking to improve. The first part of my graph was doing quite well till I had a very tilty session. I know what caused it (beer, bankroll management, etc) and that is now behind me. I tried to implement stuff I learned here (like not calling too much, don't stack off with 1 pair etc) but if anything things got worse. The red line seems to be the worst offender but there must be other things I'm doing wrong. Am I playing too many mid posn hands? Not stealing enough? Too many blinds? I'm pretty sure my biggest problems are post flop. Would anyone care to comment on my stats to give me ideas on what I should try to change. Thanks.

hello there. i don't play 6max so i'm not as qualified to comment as people that do, or anyone else that's good at poker, but i imagine you could be stealing far wider from the cutoff and button seats. your vpip/pfr ratio looks fine, ie you're not playing too passively preflop, but i think you could certainly be stealing more. (i imagine) most players would be folding their blinds at least 75% of the time. you're folding yours 90% in BB and 84% in SB if that gives you a bit of perspective. i may be blind, but i can't seem to find any cbet-related stats, which would also be helpful. as far as the redline business goes, i wouldn't consider a downward redline as a problem in itself. it is certainly possible to be a profitable player with a downward redline. other than that, your stats look fine at a glance. if you want to do some study regarding what i said about blind stealing, "blind stealing 101", "blind stealing 102", and "raising behind limpers" are three threads that come to mind which cover the topic in an easy to understand format, and would probably be well worth doing a search for. good luck.

HI , Im very much a beginner , so dont rely on my opinion , better players will let you know, I would like a try though .

I've played 53k compared with your 63k and compared your positional statistics with mine .

Button I play 39/ 32 and show a $145 win.

I think it was donatello once suggested abusing the button and following up with a Cbet where appropriate, it helped me.

Good Table selection and having reads on your opponents tendencies is key here .

SB im 17/11 and show -$35

I really cant see how come Ive lost far less than you from here , buy comparing stats,

I do know that I only play monsters from the SB . unless its SBvBB and I think I can outplay BB or he folds to aggression or something similar.

MY BB is 11/6 and im -$123

Your 8/3 , so as predicted,better players will let you know, ill be intrerested to hear from more experiencees

EDIT : I would link you to my stats, but I cant get Photo bucket to upload, broadband too slow.

I've looked more closely, because I want to try and get to the bottom of this before the better players do so and compared our defending blinds stats.

Comparing your 63K to my 53K hands.

you defend your blinds SB 2870 BB 3385
im defending mine ----- SB 1287 BB 1363.

Could this be where you are leaking $$ ?

Try filtering your pt3 for when you put blinds in and when you are VPIP.
