Default PT says i am being blinded away

Hey guys,

I was looking over my PT stats with sthief09 and noticed that the money lost in BB/SB seems a bit high. I thought I would share it with you guys and see if this is normal.

3/6 only, 2,600 hands - 7.5 average players per table.

I have been required to post 1,5600 in blinds, but have lost about $500 from those positions.

BB/hand is -.17 for BB and -.06 for SB

At first glance it looks like a big leak, but after looking at it for a longer time neither thief nor I were quite sure if its a leak indeed. If anyone could provide feedback on those positions, that would be great, because they are my most losing positions by far.

Everybody loses money from the blinds. Think about it: 20% of the time you are being forced to put money in to be dealt a hand that 80% of the time you'd fold from any position. Anybody who makes money from the blinds in the longrun is a monster player.

The only thing you can do is try to minimize how much you lose.

As said before everyone loses money from the blinds, and it looks like you are not even doing too bad it could be much worse, so do not worry.

I think you're doing very well. You are winning back most of what you are losing as it should be.

Mine are -0.12 BB and -0.09 SB

Just at $2/$4 I am actually winning out of the BigBlind at +0.06 but I only have a few hands at $2/$4 ~8,000
