BJ, all above is great advice. I truly appreciate you taking the time to write it all down. You're right. I've got enough 25nl hands in the db to analyze some patterns/take notes. I will only take issue with "being too much of a numbers guy." That's not the problem. The problem imo is analytical laziness - not taking what I know of theory and applying it on a thoughtful, practical, hand-by-hand basis. I don't look at enough HH's from the db to find spots where I can learn from mistakes.

Again, much thanks.
