08-22-2005, 06:23 AM
I was going through my stats by position and I am down 500 bb from my big blind and 300 bb from my sb(net amount).....from every other position I am up a minimum of 220bb.... is this typical or have I found a glaring error w/ the way I play my blinds???

if you folded your blinds every round your winrate from the BB would be -.5 BB/100 and -.25 BB/100 from the SB. If your winrates in your database are more positive than these numnbers, you aren't attrociously [censored] it up.

It is easier to draw a conclusion from this if you state the BB Won/Hand for those positions.

thats a good point....I'm down .1 bb/ hand from the big blind and I'm down .07/ hand from the sb, so I'm not that bad... but shouldn't I still be winning money from these positions?

no. Look at your winrates from your other positions, and then subtract .5, and .25 from them. Then note that you have a positional disadvantage from the large and small blinds. -.1 BB/100 from the big blind is actually abnormally good. If you are looking at a relatively small sample size, this will probably settle out somewhere closer to -.2 BB/100.

Looks good. IMO above -.15 in the BB and -.10 in the SB is a sign of trouble if the sample size is significant.
