how much do you lose? (from the blinds)

Hey, tried searching for a similar thread for a while and couldn't find anything so just link me if there was a good thread on this subject.

I switched to 6max post-apocalypse (Frist) and due to post-party depression have hardly been playing. I've now played about 40k hands 15-30 to 30-60 mostly 30-60.

Anyway, my blind stats seem weird. I'm losing .22bb from the BB and .05 from the SB. This is filtered for hands with more than 5 players. Just wondering what a normal range for these numbers is. I realize my sample size is small.

Thanks.

(0.11)bb from bb (0.05)bb from sb

I can't quitre remember and I don't have PT in front of me but I think your BB number looks a little out of whack and should be more in the (0.1) range.

Yea, this isn't sustainable long-term.

Rule of thumb, keep BB leak under .2 and SB leak under .1 and you're doing about as good as can be done. Variance will skew a bit in either direction, but thats the general rule.

I would think that a BB might win more in a 2/3 blind structure than in a 1/2 (and especially a 1/3) blind structure because of the extra dead money in the pot. Particularly if other players aren't adjusting sufficiently for the 2/3 structure. No?

well, I should have stated that I play a considerable ammount of 3/4 handed games.
