 So, my showdowns won % is 50% which is ok I think.

The real question is Showdowns %, I'm at 5%. I've noticed in most other threads this stat is typically 20%+.

So some thoughts:
I give up too easy (don't think it's true)
I blow people out of the pot when I'm ahead (possible)
I'm playing at a lower stake so I'm not getting the chips all-in because players refuse to play for stacks (my all-in% is < 1%)

I know this is really vague, but if anyone has any thoughts I could look for hands that may shed some light.

If my showdown% was only 5, I'd be winning like 70% of them.

Those stats don't even seem possible, unless you're like folding sets and showing down top pair.

Unless, like you said, you just elicit massive amounts of folds.

Its probably just an error in your tracking program because that wouldnt make sense at all.

 I'm using PO, not PT. Although I believe one post, I forget who's, was with PO and their was higher also.

On the front tab it says "Showdowns %" 5%. This means 5% of the time I'm dealt a hand it goes to showdown, which seams reasonable to me.

If this 20% that's in PT is different could someone please explain?

jackvance is an unknown quantity at this point
 The one in PT is probably showdowns when you see a flop, while in PO it's for all your hands. Mine is at 8% FWIW.
