Default 5-10 is Bending Me Over the Kitchen Table

I was a solid 2 BB winner at 3-6 over about 40K hands. Not sure what the problem is here. If anyone has any advice, please share it. Thanks in advance.

It seems like yo are playing raise or fold poker post flop. Settle down and bring down your turn and river aggression by making some more call downs. Folded to river bet should be around 35%.

Yeah that folded to river bet number looked pretty high when I was looking through these.

Your turn aggression seems way to high.

You are defending the SB too much

You are defending the BB not enough (especially HU)

I've beaten 10/20 fairly significantly through 175k hands and my folded to a river bet is exactly the same as yours.

Loosen up a little bit and, even without your numbers by position, I'm betting you bb/100 in the blinds is bad.

What types of hands do you defend in the BB with that you pass on the SB?

Tighter in the sb to a steal (~88%)
Looser with limpers (~32-35% VPIP)
Defend BB more (~55% to a steal)

As far as specific hands to defend, it just completely depends on who's raising, who else is in the hand, who limped, blah blah blah.

Are you saying that I should fold SB to steal attempts 88% or are you talking about something else? 88% seems really high to me

With the 2/5 blind structure, yes (roughly).
