Ello, just noticed this thread here and started reading it...

https://www.cardschat.com/forum/cash-games-11/varaiance-i-just-suck-179272/

Realised a bit better how to analyse my game positionally, I looked at my position stats for the first time at 50NL... Just LOOK at this, I was SHOCKED :|

Look at it! Look how much I'm losing on the blinds! I might as well just fold every time I'm on the blinds!!

Here's my main stats anyway:

And some more position stats...

Sorry if this is a bit of a pathetic thing to post, but I don't have and cannot afford a coach. Tryna do this thing totally self-taught (well, Cardschat-taught? Lol). Anyway, would be nice to get some feedback on my game. I think I've raised my post-flop game considerably over the past few weeks or so, feel I know what moves to make against what opponents much more solidly now, but maybe I need to get back to basics with my pre-flop play, I dunno.

You expect to lose from the blinds. But you need to also defend enough that you don't give up everything to 72o from the button every time.

Your SB PFR/VPIP doesn't look too bad, but the gap between the PFR/VPIP seems wide for BB. If you're ahead of a button steal then calling is an option, but otherwise more raise/fold rather than call, imo.

And your stats overall look tight for 6 max, likely because you're not opening up wide enough from late position and pressuring with a wide range when you have position. Again this is just my opinion and most of my play is FR rather than 6 max.

W$SD seems a titch high, but if it's not low and you're losing overall you might be not getting sufficient value with the hands that you're winning with. Or it might be variance with this sample size.

Are you really getting value by 4 betting 9.28% preflop? Unless you're always playing deeeep stacks I'd find it unlikely. And that's a lot of calling 3 bets pre as well and 4 bets, though I expect some of those are probably short stacks.

Regarding the gap between VPIP and PFR on BB: If there's lots in the pot and I have a PP or SCs or somethin' then I'll just be calling to play a juicy multi-way pot, cuz I figure the original raiser might 4-bet or something... 3-betting just seems dodgey from the BB with lots of people in a pot, especially when my 3-bet% is like 9%... And folding just seems wrong if I've got like 78s and there's 3+ people already in a pot and it's only 2 or 3 more BB to call...

And regarding not opening up enough, I tend to multi-table fairly heavily, these 24000 hands have only been over the course of less than 2 weeks and I've only been playing a couple of hours a day. So that explains my tightness but maybe I'm still a bit too tight. Not exactly ecstatic with these stats though, ugh...

Your VPIP is WAY to low imo, especially for a 6 max micro game.

And you're blinds will always be losers.

Hi.
As someone earlier mentioned, you should really loosen up a bit. Especially in the CO and BTN position. There are great opportunities to steal pots from CO which you have a VPIP of only 15 from. That's way to low.

Yotu blind play seem fine to me.

Blinds look fine, actually. You should probably both tighten up a bit in EP and loosen up quite a bit on the BTN.

Also, sample size is still quite small for win rates to be significant positionally. Winning or losing a coin flip for 100BB affects you win rate over 4k hands by 0.025 BB/hand, which is pretty significant.
