Hey StinkyPete,

I'm not sure if we're allowed to offer serious questions and comments in this forum, but I do find myself wondering whether you really have a gambling problem, as you say. It looks to me like you have a LAG problem, but that's not exactly the same thing.

In any event, I hope you work through whatever the problem is. Seriously.

when i said i have a gambling problem, i meant that i play at limits i shouldnt be playing at. i have no reason to believe i'm a winner at 50/100+, but i play there anyway.

the hands are almost all somewhere between 2-5 handed, so it's not necessarily a LAG problem, though its possible that i'd do better if i tightened up a bit.

I won't presume to comment on the proper stats for 3-handed play. Are you playing 3-handed frequently because those are the games that happen to be available at higher levels? With such a downswing, probably the first thing I'd do would be to stick to 6 player tables (or drop down).
