This is for 5-max.

A few questions:
Ideally, what should my blind steals be at?
Should I loosen up because it is 5-max?
Also, am I too tight from the SB?

Thanks in advance

well, 22/15 is considered tight at 6 max so if u multiply these numbers by 6/5, you have 27/18, which i guess would be considered tight for 5-max.

You sir, are a nit. But if it works...

You could probably stand to open the button and cutoff more, i like my attempt to steal to be above 35%. The disparity in your pfr and vpip would suggest that you don't raise limpers enough, or that you don't threebet light openers enough.

agree with Renton but you can definitely be a solid winner with these numbers.

Ur most glaring weakness is not attempting to steal blind enough-def want 30%+ imo.

Damn I miss poker room

Agree with Renton, but if it isn't broke don't fix it. You can probably play a pretty low variance game with those numbers, you could always open up your game and get better at hand reading though

Nice though.

the 400nl game on pokerroom is supposed to be good isnt it?

I think these stats are fine considering the type of game it is on that network.

heh heh heh...

Yes, the 400nl game on pokerroom is good; it's very good!

...unless u meant good as in tough?
Yes, it does have its fair share of solid regulars like any site, but at certain times during the day/night I will be sitting at 5 tables with at least 2 complete donkeys (65/10/2 types) on each table.

Looks good JL.

It'll be hard to be a really big winner playing this style, but it'll be a low-variance ride to the higher stakes and you'll prob be able to avoid tilt by playing this kind of solid game.

Also, if you table select like Cocco Bill there's no reason you need to change your game, even at 5-10.

Keep it up.
when the vpip's are high and the value bets are like razors, who can be safe?
