Default Re: Need Help with the Blinds

Complete less often from the SB - it looks like you're playing some trashy stuff. If the pot is raised you should tighten way up everywhere, and this includes the SB. Your discount is minimal out of position against a raiser. For the same reason you shouldn't be defending your SB as much as you do. When you do defend play hands that have some showdown value - suitedness doesn't mean as much, nor does connectedness. I'm more likely to defend with A7o than JTs.

Also defend your BB less. I know it's cheap to get in, but you're still out of position. You're playing 68% of your hands; you're behind any two a lot of the time here.

You should however loosen your standards when it's your chance to steal. Considering your position and fold equity do you understand why you should be stealing with many more hands than you defend with?
