Default 50k hands of 6-max (3 week stat check-up...)

Hey guys. I just hit 50,000 hands and decided to see if there are any big leaks. I've done a few self-check-ups using Pokey's guide, which was a big help. The huge downswing in the graph is from 2k hands of $100 NL where I just spewed quite badly. FWIW, I started playing $25 NL, moved up to $50, back down to $25, down to $10, back up to $25, up to $50, played like crap at $100, and now I'm back at $50, planning on taking another shot in about 15k more hands. I generally 12-table, though I was playing fewer earlier while I was learning the game. A lot of my big losses are straight spew, not folding when I should or giving correct odds and then paying off. Because of that, and moving up originally too quickly, my first 20k hands at $50 NL were break-even. Anyway...here goes..

You play too many tables. I wouldn't recommend anyone playing microstakes to play more than 4. The money you surrendur right now will more than make up for it in about 6 months.

It helps you grind only, not become a better poker player, otherwise when you're learning you'll be making too many rushed, bad decisions if you're playing too many tables

Blah blah blah ..... on a different note, if I hadn't 8 tabled the 11s for hours and months on end, I wouldn't be the player I am today

Your BB/100 looks low. Not a huge sample size though. This probably an indication of post flop errors as normal.

12 tabling too high for someone learning IMO. Play less tables when you move up to $100.

Hope you got a good rakeback deal!

12-tabling 6-max? Wow shoot me now, it must be really hard being properly aggressive/defending blinds.
