    Stop limping so much. Also, I dunno what these stats are good for.

    Eh, go for 5k hands then post. 3.75 buyins could be simply due to running bad.. then again, probably dont limp/ flat raises pre as much.
    Im ready this time.

    in ur accounts... confiscating ur funz
    Stats aren't good for much - not nearly enough hands and average number of players is kind of important. But you're almost definitely limping or calling too much. Don't ever open limp.

    There should be a sticky in the BC that says 'first x # of hands stat review' and it should say "stop open limping, and you're calling too much." and be locked.

    I'm still trying to understand the stats. Each have said stop limping so much. So does that mean that the first number and second number should be closer together...Like 18/15??

    Its funny because i thought i had made a conscience effort not to be a limper and only play premium hands raising and pre and aggressive post....I guess the numbers say otherwise...

    i think i read somewhere a perfect number is somewhere around 16/13 or something...
    i'm currently a 15/11 and think i play way to nitty most of the time. I was a 34/19 lol.. so i guess that shows how much my thinking has changed since reading posts here.
    There should be a speadsheet type layout you can view where it will show how much money you have won and loss from certain positions. this is usefull to find your leaks. You did get PT3 right?

    Nothing wrong with running 12/10. Make profit than expand.

    Yes i have PT3


    I have analyzed the stats a little further and it seems i'm doing good as far as position goes, only 8% UTG and UTG+1 and +2,but it seems like i'm over playing medium pocket pairs as 3 out of my 5 top loosing hands are QQ TT and 88. I guess my fold button disappears when i get these hands....

    ah see, well there's a good leak to start. do you have the hand histroy of those hands?
    you can go back and play with poker stove and see what your equity was during those hands and stuff like that. get a feel for where you went wrong. played them to aggressively? played them too pasively? or maybe they were just badbeats
    This is all good info to go over

    Don't post after 1k hands, wait til you have 5k at the absolute minimum, I'd recommend 10k before you see anything really meaningful.

    Yeah I'd suggest playing really nitty at first especially in earlier positions and raising a ton on the button when folded to. Your numbers do in fact need to be much closer together like suggested earlier which means you are limping or calling preflop too much. I would rarely call preflop unless I had a low PP or insane implied odds with another hand. OOP we can even fold some lower PP sometimes.
