    Default What should my numbers from the blinds look like?

    It seems that I may have a leak in my blind play, but I haven't found anything to compare to. I play mostly 4NL and 10NL 6 max, my SB stats over 13,828 hands are as follows: 31/16 and - (negative) 6.37/100BB with a 36% attempt to steal. My BB is 16/6 and - .0.32/100BB and no att. Should any of these numbers be cause for concern? Did i post all of the important numbers(if at all)? About 10% of my money is lost in the blinds, relative to what I've won in all other positions, BTW. Every other position seems ok. If there are any leaks, I just want to nip them in the bud. Thanks!

    Take a look at the Leak Buster trial in Holdem Manager. It won't show you everything you are looking for but you can get a good idea where some of the ranges you are looking for should be and the order of importance based on your game.

    get at least 30k hands and then post a picture of your stats from your tracking software. there are a million other stat threads which you can study to find out what kind of info has been beneficial for spotting leaks.

    from what little info you've provided, i'd guess you're playing far too many hands out of the blinds. particularly the SB (you always get better pot odds to call or 3b in the BB so your range there should be slightly wider than SB)

    This is an awesome tool! I think if used properly it really works! For example, I have a VPIP of 31% in the sb, which everyone pointed out is far too much (TY). But the tool gives me an A+ for folding to steals properly, so i was a bit confused at the seemingly contradictory data at first. But they go hand in hand; upon further inspection of my data, I found I limp behind far too often in multi way pots with mediocre hands, for one. It also tells me I'm not taking advantage of spots in the BB often enough (TY rpm).

    Anyway, I think a tool like this is amazing if you use it as an aid for session review, weekly review, etc, rather than just blindly applying the adjustments it tells you to make. Does anyone else use it often?

    less important are your overall bb sb numbers more important are your blinds numbers vs steals

    you should be playing a lot against steals

    Since I posted this I've noticed a considerable improvement and now i don't have to question what I'm doing wrong in the blinds (for now). I've starting keeping track of steals vs. blinds and reactions to 3bets, etc, so i can adjust my play accordingly. Thank you guys, I'll keep you up to date when i have enough hands to mean something.
