What is my huge leak?

[TheProdigy]

Hey guys,

After playing about 5k hands, I am wondering why I seem to be consistantly losing at this game....I must have a huge leak somewhere, and I am just trying to find it..Thanks guys, here are my stats from PT:

VP$P 22.37
VP$P from SB: 38.92%
Att. to steal blinds: 31.58%
Won $ when saw flop: 23.97%
Amount won: -62.82
Went to showdown: 33.14%
Won $ at showdown: 47.87%
Preflop raise: 5.99(I would do this more at higher limits but should I do it more also at smaller limits?)
Aggro Factor: 1.26



So can anyone tell me where I can improve at? Also, since I'm playing micro-limits, what is one of the stats that I should maybe have different numbers for playing micro vs higher limits(ex. on .5/.10 you should have a VP$P of 24, but on $3/$6 it should be 20.5)

Thanks a bunch

VPIP might be a bit high, but at the micro's you should be fine as you will still be playing better hands than your opponents who are seeing 30+% of flops. As a general rule of thumb you want your VPIP to be about 5% less than the table average.

Won$When saw flop is generally in the 30% range and you are around 24% which would indicate to me that you are running bad. You can get back to break even with one big session, so 5K hands is really a drop in the bucket.

After each session review any hands where you lost more than 3 BB's and figure out if you could have done something different.

Stats thread

You are 23/5 preflop. Change this to 23/12 or something. Im 25/15 when I play fullring right now but I think thats a bit too loose but not by much.

Sounds as if you play a full ring table like a 6-max table. [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

There are so many weak tighties where I bonuswhore currently so I feel an aggressive style is what works best. And yeah I play it pretty much like 6max but I can limp a little more.

Yeah, I do the same. It's kinda fun to be a lag sometimes, but I hate weak-tight tables unless, like you, are clearing a bonus. You playing at Absolute or something?

Playing at martinspoker.

Look at how much you are ahead or behind when trying to steal the blinds. It isn't uncommon to find people who will not fold their blinds, ever. You may have run into them and need to tighten up what you are making steal attempts with. And again 5k hands isn't enough to get an idea of what is going on.

Quit open limping with small pp and Axs. These type of hands should be played in position after a couple of limpers. These two adjustments should solidify your overall strategy because you'll be in less marginal spots post flop.

Just a shot in the dark, but I'm right aren't I?

Oh yeah. Don't ever slowplay at these levels.
