$50NL 6Max- I've lost my mojo.....

krazyace5 · #1 09-01-2005, 05:48 AM

Going back to February, my first 59,000 hands I had a 9.44bb/100 win rate. Since then it has dipped to a low of 2.54 bb/100.

I feel like it is alot of bad luck, but I know it can't all be blamed on that. I have been working on my aggression preflop and postflop, it just seems like everyone hits their hands against me lately(since may/june [img]/images/graemlins/crazy.gif[/img] ).

For instance I know it is said on this forum to always call all in preflop at this level with KK but every single time I do it I am against AA and get stacked, this happens every session or two.

Just getting extremely frustrated. I posted my stats a little while back but did not get much feedback so I am posting them again here. Any glaring problems?

88,563 hands

vpip 23.34

vp from sb 42.44

folded sb to steal 82.82
folded bb to steal 77.56
att to steal blinds 7.56

bb/100 hands 3.12

went to sd 21.23
won at showdown 54.32
pf raise % 5.74

Also here is my last session on pokergrader, maybe you can spot some problems on here?

Any feedback is appreciated.

With those stats... something is wrong, you don't seem to be getting value from your winning hands.

I have similar stats except for w%@sd of 49% (after only 2.5k hands, I keep missing the showdowns), and my PTBB/100 is 13.

I think you need to sort your tptk lines, otherwise you're not picking up enough uncontested pots on the flop.

Say you call in LP with 67s, flop comes K83 rainbow, if checked to you you pot that right?

The only thing I'd say, is that you're probably a bit too loose preflop, considering your PFR.
My VPIP is around 18-19, with a PFR on 7.5% (9.75% at NL25).
Also VPIP from SB is too high IMO - should probably be 30-37%.

Steal more blinds. This is +ev and additionally does wonders for your image.
It will also raise your PFR%, which probably should be higher at 6 max.
And don't play too much crap oop (SB)

Just my 2 cents.

stats are hard to interpret. maybe you've been slightly unlucky here but i don't know...

I think you should post that AJs hand that cost you $53. I can't see why you should lose that much on that board. (unless there are some extraordinary circumstances involved... )

Stats posts are completely worthless (unless you're a very very new beginner) which is why you don't get good responses on them. Post hands where you lose a lot of money calling big bets. I can almost guarantee you that your problem is taking one pair too far.

This seems really low for 6-max. Raising a bit more would a) pick up some blind money and b) get you more action on your big hands.

How did you lose a $50 pot with an inside straight draw?

There's no reason for that.

This was against a 61/25 player and I picked the wrong time to bluff.
