Default lets talk about leaks........

so i was reading ed's old post the other day about leaks and it got me thinking....i have no idea what my leaks are! my basic stats are basically ideal 25/15/35/2.83. table selection is not an issue at the stakes a play [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img] [img]/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img].

most people say to post hands, well in my opinion i rarely play a hand interesting enough to post.

so i'm wondering what YOUR biggest leak is. what makes you think this is a leak? how did you find it? how are you correcting it? i'm hoping that some of you more advanced players will know your own games better than i know mine, and that it will help me find mine. hopefully this will generate some decent discussion as well. ty all

no idea what my biggest leak is but here are a few I am working on:

betting the river when the bet is not for value

inducing bluffs from people who don't bluff enough

giving up too easily in small limped pots. not that sure about this one tbh

some bad flop peels

defending too light considering the 3.5BB/100 rake I pay at 5/10

playing fold or raise too much on the flop

angry and tilty

My biggest leak had been 2 and 3 barreling ak high against 2 calling stations with position.

Generally just being too aggressive against players that will call with an enormous range of hands.

lol sethy, that zoo thread was hilarious. he's just some nit complaining about how he can't beat post legislation poker right?

out of curiosity, what is your ATSB? mine is at 42.6 over my last 40k hands of 5/10 and 10/20

edit: also did you get my PM today? I sent in the early afternoon

1. making really retarded turn plays with crappy hands and calling down when 3-bet/capped sometimes without a pair.

2. Betting the river with a crap pair oop when i can't really beat anything and should just c/f.

3. Showing down A-hi WAY too much.

4. Stealing and restaealing too much when the blinds are loose and my image is overly laggy.

5. Being impatient and multitabling leads to a bunch of timing tells.

Thinking that your stats are ideal and that there exist "ideal" stats is prolly a leak. It reflects a lack of understanding of game dynamics and thus a lack of understanding of poker.

BTW I am 90% sure that having an AF of 2.83 and only raising 15% preflop is a leak. [img]/images/graemlins/tongue.gif[/img]

Oh and I have no leaks. I am the best ever!
