Hi Bodi,

You're tight/weak. For someone who only enters a few pots, you're way too quick to fold. Your went to showdown % should be up around 35 since you play so few pots (because you'll have a better hand more often than a looser player). You could also stand to be quite a bit more aggressive pre-flop. You look like you're at a stage of your development where you've learned not to play too many hands, but you haven't really learned how to play the hands you do play well. I'll bet you never pure bluff, do you? Practice a little to get a feel for it. You should be very effective at it as tight as you are. Here's an exercise: whenever you see a flop and everybody checks, bet the turn no matter what comes and no matter what your cards are. I guarantee you this bet will have, at worst, a zero expectation. This will be some good practice at learning to be aggressive. Being a tight/aggressive player does not mean betting and raising with the best hand. That's still tight/weak. A true tight/aggressive approach means being willing to play varioues situations and not just your cards.
