Help with my blind play.

Hey guys,

I think I have a big leak in blinds. As you see I have a big negative bb/100 in SB/BB. As I know, as a TAG, you should have smth like -20/100 from SB and -40bb/100.
What advice you could give to me ? I could ran some HEM2 filters, but don't know which filters to run etc.

Tell me if you need some other stats, I'll take photo of it.

your calling too much in both spots. look at the difference between your VPIP and PFR. fold more often. You're VPIP in the SB is looser than in the CO.

17.6 VPIP from the SB is too high, its pretty much level with the CO and BTN! I recently posted my concerns about my blind play and subsequently im now playing much, much tighter from the blinds. A decent strategy I find is to sometimes play hands you're comfortable 3-betting with in the blinds. So when you do enter a pot OOP you've taken some control of the hand. Position is everything, even more so at 6 max. Really try to tighten up from the blinds.

Yeah i think that tighten up from the blinds would be good for you, as others said and you will get better at this spot.

what VPIP should i aim for for SB/BB ?

maybe ~7 on the BB, maybe ~13 in the SB.

You should be PFR for most of those hands, so your VPIP should only be 1 or 2 higher than your PFR. Your PFR in those spots looks good to me, so adjust it like that.

Ok i'll try to do it in my next session, thanks guys for fast responses ! this is a great forum.

What is your cold calling % from both positions? It looks like it might be a little too high from both spots.

A lot of your stats are pretty backwards really. Try joining my thread since there's tons of stuff in there on blind play.

from SB it's 6.24% and from BB it's 9.77%.

What do you mean by backwards ? ;o

Shouldn't the numbers be t he other way around? Unless your playing against tight players who respect raises from SB then it makes sense.

Not really, because you should be stealing that BB fairly often, so you should be a little wider in the SB than in the BB. In the BB you need to be pretty tight, because if people are still in the hand at that point they have likely already limped. If several people limped there is a greater chance of being called OOP in a big pot. So you want to have a strong hand to do that, or you want to be 3betting.

At least, that is my experience.

My point was... in the blinds your relatively in the bad same spot.
