How much are you l00sing in the Big Blind? XPost from HUSH
 

Original Post Loosing in the BB

Please help me find a leak. I've played close to 200K of shorthand poker. My performance in the BB is dismal. (0.20) as of last count. It seems like many people almost effortlessly are able to achieve (0.15) which would increase my win rate by a full BB. I'm not exactly sure what is wrong. I'm posting a couple different looks at the BB to try and figure out what it might be. It could be

1. Playing too many hands/calling raises with weakish hands.
2. Playing too few hands (especially high implied odds type hands)
3. Poor blind defense.
4. Poor HU blind defense.
5. Generally crappy free blind plays.

The first image is from the Misc. Tab in pokertracker.



The second image is from the General tab. It is filtered for BB play only.



Last image is the same information from the general tab except filtered for BB and blind defense.


Those of you willing to look up your own stats and give comparative data (Along with your BB/hand in the BB) with earn my everlasting thanks and the right to demand my analysis on any hand post. ( Demands may go unmet based on time considerations )

In particular with WTSD, W$SD, and PFR when defending. Thanks for the help,

Krishan

I read this. Checked my Stats and I am l00sing (.22BB)/hand in the Big blind and (.17)/hand !!!! in the small...

Is (.15) possible for Full ring?

If so that would increase my winrate 20% !!! (thats not even including the SB leak/gush)

Thanks!!

I think a careful re-reading of HEPFAP helps, and reading the archives really helps. And something that helps me is dealing myself cards at my 6 max coffee table. After a couple thousand hands, you see what kind of hands will be profitable there. A lot of this is about post flop play, too. Schneids said he can play a lot of trash in the SB and get away with it because he plays well post flop.

This summer i'm (-0.12) and (-0.08) in the BB and SB respectively at 2/4 full. My fold to steal is 55% in the BB and 85% in the SB.
