Imo a high vpip is necessary for the shallow games.

i'd say he's laggy with low steal, def not passive
also you seem to be playing way too many hands from the blinds, SB in particular. yes, button raising ranges will be wider so your hands will fare better against aggregate button ranges, but it's not really worth defending. you absolutely gotta play tight out of the blinds.

So I've been trying to work on this, but haven't really made much progress apparently. Can someone give me some approximate BB/SB VPIP/PFR #s and FBBTS/FSBTS #s?
My stats seem to indicate that I play too many hands in the SB (~25%) though I think that's because I complete a lot with random mid/high pairs and suited aces, and I frequently get to do this due to the passive nature of the games. I think that this is generally an ok thing to do, and certainly not a huge leak if it is one.
My VPIP in the BB is closer to 15%, which is probably around the same for my VPIP in the SB in raised pots.
Actually, I'm still not that good with HEM. Does anyone know how to do a filter to find out my VPIP in single raise pots in the blinds?
Does anyone have any idea on what a decent check-fold turn % should be? I feel like this is a huge leak of mine and the reason I lose so much in non-show down pots. At plo 10, the last few thousand hands I have a 71% check fold turn. Is this too high? It feels like I cbet and then realize the plo10ers aren't going to continue to fold any piece of the board, so I end up taking the weak tight approach and check fold the turn.
also, regarding huds. What stats are a must for your huds? The current ones I have are:
(VPIP) (PFR Steal) (3-Bet) (Agg factor)
(Flop Cbet) (Fold to Flop CB) (Donk bet flop)
(Turn CB) (Fold to turn CB)
(Went to Showdown) (Won $ at Showdown)
(Fold vs. river bet) (Hands)
