About six months ago, I created a thread mentioning leaks in my game I had already found, and asking others to predict what leak I'd find next. I thought it might be useful for those just starting six-max to see the list. I should also add that, while some mistakes have pretty much been eliminated, I continue to make others, proving that in this game, we often have to keep relearning the same damn lessons.

My list was as follows:

1. Over-limping with Ax;
2. Folding too much at river;
3. Missing river bets;
4. Folding to steal attempts by small blind too often;
5. Calling, rather than reraising, with solid starting hands in the blinds;
6. Limping, rather than three-betting, with medium pairs;
7. Always betting out with decent hand, rather than occasionally check/raising.
8. Only folding/raising AK on flop to a lead bet by someone in earlier position, rather than consider calling sometimes.
9. Stealing too rarely.

To this list, a few people added the following:

10. Not keeping the lead on the turn.
11. Not 3-betting enough for value on turn and river (though some one disputed this).
12. Check/folding on river when I think I'm beat but have some kind of hand, rather than betting with plan to fold to a raise (though some one took issue with this one, and rightly pointed out that chec/call is better than c/f).
13. Not taking position into enough consideration, even though I thought I did.

As before, I encourage anyone to add to this list any mistakes commonly made by relative beginners, which I still consider myself to be.
