| At first glance, it seems like your non-showdown winnings are pretty non-standard. If you're playing your strong hands aggressively for value, that red line should be breakeven or trend slightly upward. While you have probably caught some cards in this span, you should probably be taking marginal hands to showdown less - you should limit chasing draws a bit more often, especially out of position. Other observations: 1. You are defending your small blind way too much. If you do limp along or raise, have a plan for the flop! The bad beats you experience there cannot all be bad beats. Position, position. Don't break the bank out of position. 2. Your cbet percentages imply that if you hit air on the flop, you get away from the hand too often. Especially when you have position, you should fire a barrel when a scare card hits. Percentage-wise, the play does not have to work as often as you think to be profitable long-term. It seems that when you do stick with a hand, you keep firing...which is why your non-showdonw line is so confusing. 3. Way too aggressive on the river. While you have been profitable at showdown, that line isn't sustainable if you get too attached to cards that are losers at showdown. At 5NL you can play pretty standard ABC and grind a profit if you multitable...raise strong hands for value, and don't get too fancy unless you are just goofing around. |

| W$SD target should be low 50%; 44 is pretty low. This could be bluffing the river too often as mentioned, or calling river too often. Positional stats are too flat imo, fold more from early. I'd say raise more from late as well but you're already pretty loose so just fold more weak hands from early. And stop playing so many hands from the small blind. Just fold. |

| Your VPIP is too high and your pfr is too low because of that because you are limping.Play less hands and use the pokerstove to see what hands you should play to lower your VPIP. You are calling too much on the turn and the river when you could save money folding. Last edited by swingro : 23rd April 2011 at 10:10 PM. |

| Stop playing into the small blind so much, its killing you. Just tighten up your range from this position, and as I say to my wife, dont feel obligated to put the extra in to see the flop, especially if there has been an earlier raise. |
