My DoN, SnG stats. I think their getting better..

I've been playing like a madman, with the DoNs.
I got trapped in a hand in the BB, so thats why it's so bad.
I seem to be getting great hands, well in the SB.
I've only had small down swings, thats well trying to take on 90player SnGs.
So what do you think. ?

Pretty small sample.

What stands out immediately is that you limp wayyyy to much, and your positional awareness seems poor. You should really be folding more hands in LP and raising more from the CO and button. Try to get your numbers for VPIP and PFR much closer together.

Yep, i have been working on raising more from the CO and button.
I'm coming more aware of my position, have been taking stabs at the un raised pots.
I know it's a small sample, thats about 100 games.

Thanks Tenbob.

I think that everybody loses money in the BB, and most people lose money in the SB. It is freakish that you win so much from the SB, while winning so little in the hijack position.

It'll be interesting to see the results after 20 or 30 thousand hands.

I know. That all started after about 1K in hands, when i hit a str8 with AJ.
The one hand i keep winning the most on is pocket Tens.
The tables are so tight in DoNs, i can lower my range in the SB..

Looking at those stats, right away you can tell that you complete/limp waaaaay too much in the blinds. 43 is a HUGE VPIP in the SB.

Try to get it so your VPIP is highest on the button, and progressively lower the further position away.

I disagree with this.
If you can steal from small blind 95% of the time, then keep doing that.
Play tighter in early position, and fold your bb more.

I'm folding the BB to any raise, i'm only playing jacks or better, i'm raising 4x to 5x the BB.
Raising when the blinds are low, is a problem, and that is anyone is willing to call with any ace.

Ok, so i know it's only 700 hand's more, but i think their going up where they need to go up at.
As you can see the SB keeps going up..

Stats from 3000 DoN with a pretty even distribution between $1, $5, and $10 DoNs. The hands in stats by position are triple counted for some odd reason (a HEM issue) but the stats themselves are representative of how I played. Fwiw, I had a 9% ROI which is pretty up there even among the winners. Among the big winners (5%+ ROI over a large sample size), the loosest were about 12/8 and the tightest were around 6/5.

Edit: Oh one more thing. These starts are from June-July so the games might have changed somewhat since then.
