Default My second shot at 10/20... bad run of cards or not good enough?

So I took my 2nd shot at 10/20 AGAIN like many of us here... And like many of us here, I've failed. I was pretty confident in my ability to beat this game, but lately, I've just plain died. I have over 7,500 hands this time around which is triple what I was able to survive last time before moving back down to 5/10. Now, I'm not giving up on 10/20 yet because I'm still in the green, but I've drifted from being a from being up a significant amount to barely beating it. I would appreciate it if you guys to help me plug any leaks that you see in my game. Btw, I do pretty good datamining + table selection.

My fold to riverbet was one of my weaknesses last time around at about 55% so I overcompensated a little bit. 35% is within the realm of acceptable right? My ATSB is just a tad low...

I don't see much else that I am doing wrong. I hope and think that I'm just running badly. Obviously 7.5 K hands isn't big enough of a sample to tell my true winrate... But it is big enough to find patterns and leaks in my game.

Thoughts? Hands against me are especially welcome. [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

with just a quick look, you steal too little and fold your blinds too easily. these things are a huge part of your earn.

I'm torn between comments that will come off as sounding like e a dick and just being blunt. Either way, there's virtually nothing about your stats (and certainly nothing about FTRB%) over 7,500 hands that could allow any of us to give any truly constructive feedback on your game (and the same could be true for 100K hands instead of 7.5K). Stats just won't do it unless something is seriously out of whack. Unless you're seriously out of whack (and you'd have some inkling with all the stat posts in the forum), your stats will tell us little about your game.

Your stats look fine, personally I think you should look at increasing your aggression on the flop, turn and river. Get flop nearer 3 and turn and river over 2.

River over 2 is often a loser, especially at 10/20. But stats are deceptive, post hands instead.

Aggression should be no less than 2.0 all streets.

Class players such as Nikla, Nate, Vehn all had river agrression over 2.0.

Its one of the factors that set the class players apart from the average.

You are a funny guy. Apart from that I doubt very much that someone who sees as many showdowns as Nate has a river aggression above 2. You are welcome to post a link about it if you have it though.
