Took micro shot of 29 hands at 200nl this morning. Crushed it by 59 BB/100. Obviously sustainable... :D

Enty I think you may be respecting these dudes at 10NL too much and trying to run bluffs and complex plays against them. You really dont need to do that just play simple, solid TAG poker. Never chuck out a bluff unless they are a nit. All I can say is steal alot in position, cbet alot and wait for the monster hands. Thats all the advice I can offer, most villians I have alot of stats on are weak tight so fold to cbets like 85% of the time so if you face a re raise just dump it and move on, obviously change it up depending on villian.

GL mate and keep working hard!

The link in the PM is to a site that looks like CC but isnt and there u are magically loged out and need to log in again to view the thread.
Then scammer has your passwords.

Luckily im a lazy bastard and rather try to refresh browser 10 times to see if i log in again then actually typing my password :).

Ahh, thanks. Thought it might have been the same thing. I wasn't going to click on the link, I just checked his old posts to see what it was.

at 10nl my red line was positive, but still most of my profits came from the blue line.

Enty, keep focussed dude. It seems like a lot of variance to me. Look your still in the green for the month, be thankful for that. It seems to me, that ppl think they just can have winning months no matter what. It just doesn't happen! PLay the long term game, and stop being results orientated. If after say 50k hands or more your still dropping buy ins, then ask for a sweat or something, see if there's any leaks. GL mate.
Like I said it's hard to keep focussed and motivated to play through it, if it is indeed a bad run, when I can't win anything. And I'm not positive on the month, I'm down about 250. Ok that's not a lot put in perspective, although it is a decentish size of my online bankroll. But I'm more worried about not being able to beat poker anymore.

Like Jurn said I'm possibly playing too complex.
I generally play a pretty TAG game throughout my session, I cbet a lot and take a big number of pots that way, but sometimes I just spaz out on a hand and dump my money in pockets that don't deserve it imo !

That on top of coolers and beats makes for an unhappy enty :(.

I have no clue why my blue line is soooo bad. What am I doing wrong ?
There must be something else beside the almighty 'variance'.

A couple of times in the past.

I'm 12/8 at pretty much every limit, My AF is 4 which is probably quite high for FR, probably cause I cbet so much but maybe I still double barrel too much.

My WS is around 23 I think, but my WS$W is only around 47 on every limit, hence why the blue line is so low..

Also my steal% is said to be a little on the small side.

Difficult to say, possibly too aggro at 10-25nl? I mean those limits are pretty much infested with calling stations. There's no use double barreling unless you have a decent made hand tbh. You could deffo do with a sweat imo. I would offer but I got major issues atm ( soundcard/microphone playing up) plus I also have Jake and the shrog to sweat so pretty much tied up tbh.

Since I just got hem, those are my stats at tables I'm doing really well at, the tables I don't it seems I'm 11/6 or 22/10 so I don't have a real feelig of what my real stats should be yet, but I think I'll keep aiming for yours, they seem to work best for me too.:)

yes to both. Still requires a lot of time, though. When i played the warmup last Sunday, the bubble burst after something like 3.5 hours. Don't know about later stages as i went out right after that...

I don't really know how to loosen the stats up. I'm already open raising almost any 2 broadway cards, with the exception of QJ and KJ which I'm mostly open folding. I usually open raise with pp, although I sometimes still limp and call if someone else raises. I'm dumping connectors and suited connecters from mid and early and usually also late, since I don't steal that much.

stats at a given table really depend a lot on the cards, so you shouldn't be too focused on those.

steal more. isolate more. position, position, position.

I'm running 15/13 overall at 100nl fr, but positionally, that's

BTN: 30/26
CO: 21/18
Mid: 14/12
Early: 8/8
BB: 9/6
SB: 17/12
