LOL nothing like pokergrader to make you feel better. My girlfriend always laughs when I go to that site. She says she can tell if I had a losing session, because I usually goto pokergrader after that.

You might be running bad, but man, you play too tight.

-217BB in 3,100 hands (175 of those BB today in 2,260 hands). Take that!

Running -217BB over 23k hands is much worse for a winning player.

No I don't play too tight. If you just don't get the cards VPIP doesn't have to be high. It's normally around 17 ([censored], is that too tight? [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img])

I play about 19 at 2/4, but I played LAGier than most at .5/1 and 1/2. 17 is probably alright though, if it's your style, but I'd recommend working towards loose aggressive to raise your winrate.

I was looking more at went to showdown. To be fair, it's probably not close to converging yet. It just seemed really low, even after only 500 hands.

I guess this is why you have to be careful about PlayerView reads.

You might want to rethink your profession. That's getting to the point that it's not variance.
