I think my aggression is way below standard.. any tips on how to fix that.. i pretty much never fire the 2nd barrel with air, is that how ya'll get your turn aggressions so high?

Looking at your showdown stats, you're not running bad, you're running godly.....and you're a calling station.

There is no way that 100nl is aggressive enough for these stats to ever be anything other than marginally profitable long term imo.

I don't know what your b/r situation is but if you can do it you might try playing raise or fold poker for like 2,000 hands. If necessary move down to 50nl for those hands. It will give you a better idea of hand values, the value of aggression and the spots in which aggression pays off. Then move back up and incorporate what you've learned into your game. 19/16/3 will feel like nothing.

Could be way off, but based on stats I would guess you are running above expectation.

Your WTSD% should be at least like 5% lower ... you can accomplish that by firing the turn a lot more

Before we all get you looking way too much on the postflop stuff, you have some serious problems preflop.

Your VPIP at least 5% too low. Something in the mid 20's is probably about right. A VPIP this low will get exploited at NL100.

Your pfr is at least 5-7% too low. This should be in the 17-20ish range. Any intelligent player would note this and not give you much action preflop.

Although there has been a lot of discussion recently about VPIP form sb, yours is probably 10% or so low. Open up your game here and complete more often if it is limped to you.

I don't have my numbers in front of me but you Att To Steal Blinds is way low. Should be at least 30% and probably higher.

Your VPIP/PFR ratio is also a bit off. It should be more like 25/20 or 23/18 or so. Having a ration of 19/12 means you are limping too much and not raising enough.

OK... Once you have fixed this, lets move onto postflop.

As stated below, your wtsd is terribly high. Mine is about 20 but I think something in the 20-23% range is probably about right. 29 is way too high.

Accordingly your w$ at SD is too low. This should be more in the mid 50%.

Post hands and good luck.

Just a quick look and you look like a calling station for sure. You are going to SD way too much. You are defending your blinds a lot but not taking others'. Try for 4/3/2 aggro.

There are only 3 or 4 replies that I agree with at all in this thread so far... The comment, "Your VPIP at least 5% too low. Something in the mid 20's is probably about right. A VPIP this low will get exploited at NL100..." is awesome.

You can play 19/15 and CRUSH basically any limit. There will only be a few 6 handed games in which the best 19/15 player wouldn't be able to win. With that out of the way, playing 19/12 can be fine too. If you call lots of raises in position instead of 3betting, and overlimp instead of isolating, you can have stats like this and still do very well.

The best advice I can give you is fire more on the turn. Don't turn marginal hands into bluffs, but bet for value and bluff much more on the turn. You should also tighten up from the blinds.
