PokerEV: I know I ran bad today but how much??

[RiverRider]

I know I ran bad today, but I have some difficulties interprating my PokerEV graphs.

Lets say that:
<u>Game Analysis Graph</u>
Showdown winnings = $200
Slansky Bucks = $2000
Total Winnings = -$600

<u>Luck Graph</u>
All in winnings = $500
Expected All in winnings = $1200

So does it mean that I lost $2600 in equity today (Slansky Bucks - Total Winnings)? How reliable are those stats?

no. showdown vs skl $ tells more about how u ran than skl vs total.
if ur good the ur showdown $ = total winnings
skl is not the important part of the software.

u ran bad to the tune of $700
u lost at least $800 from not getting enough value and /or not bluffing with a good enough frequency. These figures may be skewed a little if people caught a lot of hands vs ur c-bts and double barrels etc. but simply looking at the skl$ is a recipe for disaster+ actually increased tilt. My guess if that you have a poor relationship between ur W$WSF and ur style of play.
the software is v useful to analyze ur play, u shud try and learn about how to use it to fix the leaks
