Wow, I didn't expect this much response. I'll try to answer all of the questions. If I miss something let me know...

Probably you're getting cut up when you face better players because you're a rock. Your PFR% is abysmal. What are your aggression numbers?

[/ QUOTE ]
I had to go and look up what PFR% (and the other terms) meant. I have to agree. I've only played in live home games and on-line. In a live home game situation I don't hesitate to raise pre flop with solid hands. For some reason, on the micro-online games, I just can't bring myself to do it. It seems I have a crapload of callers even if I pot it in late position anyway. I know this is the wrong mindset and I need to work on this bad habit.

And is this mostly PL or limit?

Pot Limit

Get this over 55%, I have a feeling lowering your VPIP may lead to getting you into some marginal situations you are getting in now and help raise this number

[ QUOTE ]
could you post your your starting hand requirements that get you a vpip of almost 30 plz.

[/ QUOTE ]
I think my answer to these two is I'm calling too much at the .01/.02 tables. It's odd that I have a different mindset between .01/.02 and the .02/.05 tables. Even if I have a marginal hand at the one/two cent, I find myself calling mid, late, button, and blinds (pretty much everything but EP). I think that's what's pushing my VPIP up so much.

I realized (after I played with PTO some more last night) that my Omaha High and 8/b stats were mixed and I had typed up the 'summary' from all of my Omaha games. I'll type up the summary for each game and table and post it tonight.

You must have some major leaks to have such a low win rate. To me the most common mistake on the micro tables is playing too many hands. The other costly mistake is calling with weak draws, especially draws to half the pot. Use your PTO to review all the hands you play and look for times when you should have folded instead of calling.

[/ QUOTE ]
I think you're right on this. That's one of the reasons I invested in the PTO, hoping it could help me get out of the woods. [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img]

OK, bearing my soul here (at least my stats). I've tried to condense them where I thought I could. If this is too much info, moderators please feel free to edit/delete.

I can live with that for now.

My profit at the $0.02 tables is terrible. I think tightening up my starting hands alone would go a long way to resolve this.

I guess I need to pick one game and stick to it until I’m satisfied with my results. If that’s true, then I think I’d like to focus on my $0.05 Hi/Lo stats.

I don’t plan on playing anything above $0.05 until my measly bankroll can handle the ups-and-downs and I feel like I have a better handle on my play… [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img]

Also, thank you to everyone that has offered advice.

yes, you 100% have the wrong mindset... when you raise pre-flop in O8, it's usually because you want a lot of callers. that's why it's called sweetening the pot.

Less than 1000 at PL (all .01/.02). I've been too cheap to lay out the $55 and register my PTO, so I'm maxed out on the hand count. Hard to spend $55 on PTO when my bankroll is only $57, but I will probably buy it soon. Anyway, 40 BB/100 is a good win rate but it's still only $1/hr so I'm not ready to turn pro yet.
