Stat post -- 3/6 and 5/10, 40K hands

[kross]

This is my first stat post. While I'm beating the game, I'd rather be crushing it (wouldn't we all).

I've suffered two large downswings at 5/10, which might be partly due to my over-aggresiveness, where I tend to keep firing with unimproved high cards. That's something I've been working on lately, and I feel I've made progress in that area.

Another weakness I think I have, is I think I fold too much. I tend to bet/fold, and am probably getting bluff raised too much. I'm working on check/calling when I don't want to get bluffed off the best hand, and I don't know how to handle getting raised.

Anyway, here are my last 40,000 hands at 3/6 and 5/10.

Thanks!

you dont get to showdown enough.

you also seem pretty loose in EP and very very tight in the BB.

this is somewhat of a guess but i think you're actually running pretty hot right now based on your pair + two pair performance.

Holy! Your stats are extactly just like mine but I'm running at 2.8BB/100 for the past 13k hands. The one pitfall we have is cont bet on drawing boards with ace high

doesnt this belong in BBV?

You're saying I need to make sure I'm cont betting w/A-high on drawing boards, yes? Good point.

No.

Your stats look pretty good although I am baffled by how your QQ can be doing so much better than both KK and AA. That is bizarre. Overplaying AA perhaps?

Also, see more showdowns. And tone down the aggression just a bit.

Two pair does look very high, but isn't pair suppossed to be around 45%?

Most people are far to focused on this. Your numbers appear so aggressive because you're folding too much. You might be a little over aggressive but you won't be able to figure that out until you stop making bad folds.

Also you need to play more hands and play them more aggressively in the blinds.

Looking at your numbers after a PFR it looks like your checking too much.

You're also check raising pretty rarely. You might want to look for a few more spots to cr.

You're folding on the river way too much IMO.

We're talking about 200 hands for each of these. Variance is huge with regard to these numbers.
