Default How do I get the Went-to-showdown% up?



I feel that I am chasing every possible draw that I have the odds to chase. But still my Went to showdown % is a lot lower than it should be. That means I fold a lot where I shouldn't, doesn't it? Any advice how should I get this number up?

for starters you prob aren't raising enough preflop from the CO and BTN, position is key

post some hands that you folded on the flop or turn

Might be useful to see your other stats, such as aggression stats.

I'm thinking here of the pokertracker table with the fold %'s on the flop, turn, and river.

Your stats look pretty good. My WtSD is about the same (at full ring). Flop seems a big over aggro -- either you're betting/raising too often with UI overs, or folding too much.

You're folding a lot more than I am on the flop, my flop fold% is 19%, that's at partypoker .50/1.00 though. Perhaps others can see if your flop fold percentage looks a bit high to them as well.

Don't worry too much about it. Pay attention to how others are valuing hands, especially players you respect. Chances are it's a callibration problem or just not adjusting properly to the people you're playing against. Some 6-max play would probably also help.

I'm a fellow member of the fold too much club. Like a lot of other thngs, it's improving over time (I think).

Your aggression stats show you fold too much.

I was playing with almost the exact same stats at the beginning of the summer myself at this level (.25/.50). However, when I moved to Party .50/1 I have been experiencing increased success.

Some things that helped me tremendously was opening up my starting hand requirements. Also, it seems as if your PFR is a bit too low, make sure that if everyone is folding in front of you and your on the button or one off your raising with any decent hand. This post helped me a bit:

Also, I had similar AF on the flop. It is a bit overaggressive and the reason is I would autobet the flop. Make sure your taking cards off for free when it can only help you.

Also, I tend to still fold alot on the flop myself and it's something I'm working with now, such as seeing one off to the turn to see if I'm improving. However, your AF on the last 2 streets are solid and something I'm hoping to achieve, espeically on the river.
