i recently made the switch to 6max. I didn´t feel good anymore at rocky full rings at gave it a shot, also because most ppl here said, there´s more cash in 6max. i ran incredibly good the last week, due to variance in my favor and the horrible european players (its playmoneylike in some spots, compared to ftp)

i was already told, i should lift my pfr and vp$ip, i tried to, but got my pfr onlyfrom 7 to ~9 over the last 5k hands. and i really tried to, but i feel like im at my personal laggy end of playing style atm (guess im the lord of 6m nittyness biondino )

any comments, advices and critics highly appreciated.

I think you are doing fine, maybe your game needs some improving but I would keep playing those fishy sites and try moving up a level. You have a nice win rate.

Biggest thing is how passive you are, 8.91 PFR is just way too low. What hands are you typically raising UTG? Personally, Id say the biggest hting to raising that number is to stop open limping in any position. In looking over my stats, I actually play fewer hands than you do UTG but I seemed to have settled down recently at around 21/18 overall. Not only should you just be raising more instead of limping, but you should also be more positionally aware. Id suggest trying to get your Att. to steal blinds up to around 30%, you are giving away money by not stealing more blinds.

Can your game beat 25nl? Yes, for a very good amount, but you could beat it for more with a more aggressive game and not only that, but as you move up you will _need_ that aggression to win. To sort of recap, dont open limp [limping behind a couple of players with marginal hands in LP is ok, but limping UTG is not] and steal more blinds.

Personally your VPIP needs to equal your PRF UTG. Unless there are specific moments where openlimping is a considerably better play.

QFT. There are *rare* times to open limp, but they are few and far between.

A wider range and more raises in LP will lift all boats.

thanks for the replies.

first of all, i don´t think the winrate is represantive at the moment, i had two monster sessions that nearly doubled my bb/100.

utg i raise all pp´s, AJo+, JTs+, KJs+, i open limp hands like 97s+, QTo+ and Axs, Kxs when i have one of those typical flush-chaser behind me. i´m struggling playing marginal or drawing hands oop postflop and get in serious trouble from time to time. i´m gonna work on that.

I cant imagine that range is too accurate [or at least consistent] because your PFR would be double what it is now and your VPIP would be incredibly high as well.

Back to my original suggestion, cut out those limping hands UTG and only play for a raise.

you´re right, i´m wrong. just had a look at recent sessions, should have added "occassionally".it´s surspising, what a difference is between what i think i do and what i´m actually doing

You don't need to play marginal type hands OOP at this level to be a largely profitable player.

I might just save that and paste it into a lot of the posts I see.

off topic here... what program do you use to capture your PT stats? i use screenprint32 but i always get really small pictures.
Success is how high you bounce after hitting bottom.

Just press the "Print Screen" button man, and then open up paint or photoshop or whatever and press ctrl+v [paste] and crop the image as you see fit.
