I played fr at 30/15/2.5 for 150k hands and showed a 2bb/100 profit despite paying 5bb/100 to the rake up to 3/6.

Out of curiosity, what site was this? I didn't anybody charged that high a rake at full ring.

Re: Stars 1/2 - Are my stats terrible?
 

The rake effect is affected by the number of hands you play therefore someone who plays more hands will have to overcome a larger burden than those who play less. That is why the concept of preflop tightness is correct.

Re: Stars 1/2 - Are my stats terrible?
 

Okay. Like I said, I was just curious. I'm sort of the opposite of you in the sense that I play more like 15/10 at full ring, but I'm a big believer in the idea that there's a fairly wide range of preflop stats that generate more or less the same winrate. I should add a few more hands, but I would tear my hair out if I played your stats -- just personal preference.

My recommendation, for what it's worth, is to play .50-1 6-max. If you have any leaks, playing 6-max will make them easier to find and easier to fix. You'll master c-bets, blind play, blind stealing, etc. at double the pace.

I don't know if moving to 6-max is going to help your full ring game...
6-max is a lot different from fullring. If you're this tight at fullring you're going to have to loosen up A LOT to play 6-max. You're going to have to adjust your game a lot to a playstyle that won't work as well at full ring. You also will have MUCH higher variance so you need a larger bankroll to account for that and a lot of discipline to prevent tilt!
