having my first real tough downswing, its time to post my graph, fix some leaks in my games and get my solid winning rate back ASAP :P.
It'd be appreciated if you awesome guys help me plug my leaks.
Hmmm, i only won $6.35 from UTG, which is both unacceptable and embarrassing. Also, i lost too much money from KQ and 22 in most positions.

General statistics:

quick glance says steal more/play more from LP. From what I remember 100NL players are really bad at adjusting to high att to steal %, in that they either don't adjust at all, or they end up calling you lighter, then check/folding most flops.

I don't get what the problem is. You seem to be running at ~3BB/100, that's respectable.

Everything looks great except you should probably be attacking tight players more when you're in late position. This will naturally bring your attempt to steal up slowly but surely as you get more comfortable with it.

I have no interest in discussing strategy with a protege'. Your job is to remain quiet and listen. I have a very systematic approach that I will share with the right candidate and I promise that I will turn you into a force of nature and show you elements of the game of poker that you never knew existed.

It might be because you are playing half as many hands from UG than you are in the seat one spot to its left.

My range for both seats is pretty much the same. The utg will obv be a lil lower though due to preflop raises from villain from the utg. So, trying to keep a similar range might help in that spot.

I'd aim for closer to 35% but in any case good luck.

yeah, i realized that its a big leak in my FR postflop games. I really gave up too easily when my C-Bet got called or raised. Also, my bluffing skill on later streets sucks a lot in some juicy pots. So i'm going to learn some 6-max games to improve won saw flop%. :P

i dont play 6max and really never have. tbh you dont need to imo you just need to think morea bout double barreling and playing back at opponents. also instead of actually playing 6max try watching 6m videos i feel tahts alot more useful then a) trying to learn 6m b) learning to play postflop c) implementing what youve learned. so if u can just watch 6m videos alot more productive imo and tbh thats all poker players are after amirite? productivity. keepin it real since NLHE
