My stats for review

[SjPdX]

I finally figured out how to post the pages from PT so I can start the process of evaluating my play. I hope I can get constructive criticism from the stats here and start posting hands that seem to give me trouble.

I played about 15k hands in .50/1 for +3.85 bb/100. Moved to 1/2 and have had up and down success in the short time I've played it. I don't think I'm agressive enough post flop and have negative numbers in AKs.

I'm looking forward to your responses!

Right now I can say you need to up your Flop Aggro factor, bring up that PFR, and take advantage of position more. I'll try to analyze it more later.

first let me say that you're sample size is pretty small and you might just be in a moderately bad run - if the stats look like this @ 40K then you should be concerned - with that said, here are my suggestions

VPIP is too low - should be at least above 17 - mid 18% is preferable - but this stat isn't too bad low 16 is okay just not optimal
Attempt to steal blinds - much too low - should at least be above 25 - raise a good portion of your hands when folded to you (any ace, any big king, QJ, any pair)
PFR is too low - aim for 8-9 % - you'll be surprised at how many pots you can pick up when it's 2-4 handed w/out a PFR.

Post flop agression factor - much too low - you should definately be at least above 2.5

It doesn't look like your'e defending your blinds enough but i don't know what an optimal range for those stats is so i won't say anymore about those.

You're folding to an awful lot of river bets - 44.14% - either you're going to far with your marginal hands or your'e laying down too often.

So those are my suggestions - given with a grain of salt. Again, you might just be in a semi-bad run.

It has not been a good run. I've had better cards. My agression factors and steal attempts in .50/1 are higher and Vo$iP is over 19% for the lower level. I haven't been able to get a foothold here in 1/2 and end up getting a little frustrated with the results. Definately mucking a lot of cards and seeing my good hands fall apart as the board gels with multiple players.

I appreciate the look. Thanks for your comments.

I don't think this is true. It should at least be 2.00. I think people can function very well with a 2.00-2.5 AF (and above as well).

Yeah. i think that i might have been too hasty there - should be at least 2 is a good aim - but i think that you're giving up some value if it's only at 2.0 over a significant sample. Also, since the 1/2 party tables are a little bit more on the rocky side - i think that a higher agression factor is more optimal here than say at the .5/1 tables where 2.0 is pretty good to have.
Want do you think of my other suggestions jaxUp?

You're losing a ton of money in the blinds. Somehow you need to improve your postflop play with marginal/junk hands. Maybe defend the blinds more and don't assume someone has AA just because they raised preflop. If you pair the board on a low flop that's a good hand heads up.

On your "session notes" page what is the total VP$IP for your opponents in all your sessions?

well, I don't think there's an optimal VPIP for 1/2. 17-22 is good. 16 is a bit on the tight side.

good advice. Get aggressive when it's folded to you. Consequently, that will help with:

I don't know much about the other stuff, and sample size is a bigger problem for blind defense and river folds.

My original post of last week was titled "getting killed in the blinds". I was assured that everyone loses in the blinds and don't expect to be a winner there. That is why I'm posting my stats, to see if I should be winning more elsewhere!

[SjPdX]

GrJr, I don't see that stat. Can you explain where it is located?
