short handed advice needed
I play 6 handed nl tournaments. I started playing online about 5 months ago and have about 1100 games under my belt. I lost alot initially(first 300 games) broke even for the next 700. But have been losing everything I play recently. The 700 or so games i was breakin even I was playing 13 dollar and some 25 dollar games. Once I play a few I get the feel for them and generally do descent. I feel my reading ability and my ability to lay down hands when i know im beat can improve but generally do ok in them bc I play the bubble properly. If i double up early, I chip away and maintain my stack till the bubble period and usually survive. I do play aggressively from the beginning raising in position with good starting cards, cbet the flop etc.
My question is why am I losing every game I play below this 13/25 dollar short handed level. ie 6.60, 3.40. I can never seem to cash in these. I have blown 2 100 dollar deposits trying to build my stack from these. I did well in the past a few months back but since ive moved up a level I cant seem to play these anymore. They call your raises till the river. You can never seem to bluff these people. If I dont bet out trying to build my stack, I get short stacked and im in a pushing situation in the later stages which isnt much better. I would really like some advice on this. What do you need to be a winning player shorthanded I guess is my question in low as well as midlevel limits. I hope this post isnt to big B |

Thanks Ive been really making an effort to do that recently. Recording all big hands of tournaments I lose. And taking a small note on each of them.

FTW ? I think Im not raising enough. And if I do and they call Im not getting away from the hands as I should. My biggest leak.
