Default Re: the blinds are pouring

Okay, for some reason I just noticed how bad it was blinds vs everything else. 80% of lost $$ from the blinds. That's hard to wrap my head around.

Now, SSHE makes a LOT more sense when it says very hard to beat low limits after blinds and rake playing like a rock.

Is 4x normal? That's hard to imagine.

Thank you. I might be able to sleep tonight.

When you aren't playing cards from the blinds, you're typically playing the top 1/5 of the starting hands (VPIP 20%). If these are all the +EV hands, is it really hard to believe that playing any two cards in the blinds will cause you to lose 4x what you normally lose?
