Default Poker tracker checkup (or how not to play)

These aren't nearly as pretty as ddubois'. I'm tighter and win less often. Small sample size but there are 45000 hands of similar #'s (prior to reading SSHE). Maybe someone can shed some light on the problem:

put your aggression numbers in as well, it is quite possible you aren't being aggressive enough.

also, compared to your other positions ( i realize the sample size is small ), you are play a lot of hands in 1st position, but not as many farther down the line.

overall the numbers look quite solid, which is interesting. i'm guessing if anything you are being passive on the flop? (although without any proof)

You played 1% more often in the CO than UTG. That doesn't seem right. You also managed to lose more money in the blinds than if you had just check/folded them all the time. In fact if that had been your tactic all along, you would have won money for this sample.

Aggression #'s
pre-flop .85
flop 2.81
turn 1.97
river .94
overall 1.39

The UTG anomaly is high due to small sample size. Lots of premium hands there recently and also due to some experimenting with limping with 33, A8s, etc.

Actually, he would have lost about $1000 more if he had check-folded all hands in the blinds. Do you see why?

Default What does aggression mean?

What does it mean to be aggressive?

-betting, check-raising, etc to protect your hand.
-raising/re-raising with odds for draws.

I understand that, but as soon as I start doing anything else like:
betting 88 with a T on board (wins small pots/loses big ones)
betting JJ with an K on board (same as above)
betting draws
representing scare cards
betting weakness with bottom pair
semi-bluffing
etc.

I get killed. 90% of Party 2/4 games go to showdown so best hand must hold up.

What does aggression mean?

I have no idea what it is, but you're leaking so much money from the blinds. maybe you're just getting really unlucky from there somehow, but you're getting killed there. everything else looks fine

What's so wrong with losing 0.25 BB/hand in a position where you have to pay 0.5 BB just for the seat? Sounds to me like he's gotten lucky a few times and may play well heads-up to boot.
