Hello, I am playing on PS, it will be a year soon. The micros I play are the lowest, NL2. I at first wanted to accumulate some "played hands" before making an analysis of it - to have a proper representative sample that can help me.
But I just either can't understand what I am doing wrong or how to fix the leak, stop slowly bleeding. I use PokerTracker for keeping an eye on my hands and these stats are based on 105,233 hands I have played since January 1st:
VPIP: 11.89
PFR: 7.82
BB/100: -2.59 - very slowly bleeding
CBet F: 53.16
Fold to F CBet: 82.39
Total AF - 3.26
the rake of about $100 this year
there are more stats if you want/need
I've tried reading forums - problems and questions of others and let it make me a better player. When I started I had a big problems remembering all the slang poker words, all the concepts (smile or not, but "call 20" took me some time to understand).
I try to be a very systematic person, if the pocket pair I have preflop has ~12% chance to make a triple, I understand that it sometimes won't make a triple for 30 ocassions and yet sometimes it will make a triple every third hand. I try to look on the bigger picture, the long run. Thus why I first accumulated these statistics, while trying to absorb the poker know-what. I also tried books, but find many of these hints and guides either very difficult to understand, or the concepts difficult to use on these lowest of all - NL2.
I use some kind of custom made HUD to have some read on players, I limit myself (because I am beginner) not to play on 10 windows like some more skilled do - yet I use PS tagging (colours) system to see how many tables a person plays on. Green are 1-2, cyan are 3-9, blue are 10-19, dark blue are 20+. I mark with purple those who have "tables currently on" hidden and just look at list of NL2 tables currently on and count how many times these "purple" players are there, then assign appropriate colour.
I have tried to analyse my most (C-lost) losing hands and I often lose to hands like Full house, Flush, Four of a kind.
All in all, last year I was bleeding big time, losing fast and furiously - since January 1st I have slowed it down a lot, but am still steadily losing. Very slowly, mind you, but I am. Thus I am asking you for help, Cardschat players.
