Default I feel like I\'m banging my head against a brick wall

These are my hands since Aug 1. I play a standard 18/13/4 game. I've watched a ton of 2+2 and cr videos of people playing cash, some multiple times. It's really embarrassing that I've spent so much time studying 25nl but my results still suck.

My question is, where should I go from here? Should I keep playing more hands? Maybe try playing without pahud up? I feel like I'm better than a lot of people at the 25nl level but I seem to just not be able to figure it out. I want to get some advice before I just blindly play another 25k hands.

You probably have a leak, without realising it.

You could post your stats too and hands that trouble you in the micro-stakes forum...

Total rake is about 450 with 30% rb for $135, but I get about 1 ptbb / 100 hands from my bonus. I mean at this point it's not even about the money.

I've posted my stats by position in the micro forum twice, once in the wrong place but no one responded constructively to either. I can understand why a lot of micro players don't get too much attention since everyone else has the same problem, but I've been a winning player at everything else I've played.

I just got a coach to see if there are crazy things I'm doing that aren't right.

So why not just play the stuff that makes you money?

Am I missing something or do you have CRAZY swings for a 18/13.
+14 BI 4K hands
-10BIs in 6K hands
+16BIs in 6K hands
-14BIs in 10K hands.

Wow.. That seems really strange. I haven't played 6 million hands like many people here, but I have never had swings like this and I am 22/17. I am going to guess that your leaks are postflop. The best way to start is to post screen shot/hands in the micro's.

Good Luck

Because I'm sick and I want to learn cash and 25nl shouldn't be this hard. It got pretty bad this last weekend though I played a few hundred hu cash hands just to get my confidence back.
