You mean my turn/river aggression is too low? That's something I need to work on I guess.. I do a lot of checking behind and bluff inducing (or I take free cards for my SC/gapper draw).

Btw, the difference between weekends and week nights is incredible; Both Friday nights I played so far were +500BB, I really think 15-20ptBB/100 is sustainable at those nights.

Adjusting to week nights is difficult, it's really weak-tight then at Prima

No, I was just look at your pokerpatterns graph. There aren't any 50BB spikes, so you obviously aren't putting enough pressure on with your good hands. It could be your turn/river aggression, maybe.

It seems to me like you are getting monster hands, but playing scared and just making small value bets to string your opponent along. The good thing is you aren't losing big pots, but the bad thing is there are situations popping up where you could be playing for stacks with a dominating hand, but might be playing to scared to pony up with your end of the betting. You are probably losing huge value here.

EDIT: The increment of bb on your chart is much much higher than I though. Never mind all of this. False alarm.

*bump*

Update..

I've played about 18K hands at 200NL and 11K hands at 400NL since moving up. Variance hit me both ways I guess :

"



I must admit I've changed some things (bit more aggro turn/river), and I've tightened up a bit (I should probably loosen up more on the button?):

*bump again*

Switched to Party lately, took some time to adjust to the software and played ~25K hands, mostly 200NL. I think I'm ready to move up to 400NL, should I make any changes? c-bet less? Should I try to push people off obvious made hands more? Defend my blinds more?

BR is approx. 9.5K (5.5K Party, 4K other sites). I cashed out 5K too. I'm taking a shot at 400NL with 5 buy-ins, I'll move down and try again later if I lose them. I've also played 25K hands at Prima before at 3.2 ptBB/100, so I guess I should be able to beat Party 400NL too.

Just played 1.8K hands and already lost 5 buy-ins

Got my blinds stats back to 11/8 in BB and 21/11 in SB (7 FRI) btw. Lost 1.7K just in the SB though, lol.

i own your winrate, but im still only just above break even UTG in 6max 100nl/200nl which is ridiculous.

Update.

50K hands at Party 400NL. I might be running bad, but I probably just suck. I'm not giving up though.

Blind losses are ridiculous, and there's no difference between EP/LP winrates. I can't play the variance card here; something must be wrong.

On a brighter note, making $3.5k in a month isn't all that bad.. and probably more with bonusses/rakeback right?

I don't have Rakeback at Party, and their bonusses are not that great (considering I'm paying 60$/hr in rake ).

I have 33% rb at a Prima skin, but I don't play there anymore.

Really hard to say why you are leaking from the blinds.

Your SB play is quite tight, what hands do you complete with?

Do you overplay small pot hands?

Do you actively take down small pots on the right boards when nobody seems to have anything?

Do you make good use of check raising opponents who always bet when checked to?

Anything that's reasonable, 76o+/64s+/54s+/Qxs/Kxs/J7s+/T7s+/K9o+/A8o+/etc.

Probably. I think I have a SC's/gappers leak.

Yes, but not without something (middle pair is ok).

I never checkraise..

Ok, I'm giving up now. Playing 57K hands at 0.3 ptBB/100 is pointless. I'm switching to either Party 200NL or 200/400 at another site.

I'll be back..
