Hey there 2+2, hope everyone's having a great day...

So the tittle speaks for it self. I'm going to try and get to the point as quick as possible, as i know people in general are not huge fans of reading big chunky pieces of text, you guys just want number's...and graphs.

My name is Martynas, im 24 originally from Lithuania, moved to UK when i was 11/2, spend 12 years there, and now relocated myself to France.
Long story short, I've discovered poker back around late 2012 id say, fell in love with it, got completely obsessed and knew it right there and then, that this is the thing i wanna do. (played mainly live cash games in the beginning 1/1 - 1/2, then transitioned to online cash games, and finally settling down and focusing mainly on MTTS's)

I'm completely self taught, never had any professional training /coaching/study groups etc. At the begging I've used anything i can get my hands on, from PS poker school (lol, gd old times), to books and training/gameplay videos, 2+2 forum etc. And in more recent years, in order to improve my game, i've reviewing/analysing my own hand histories, using a bit of flopzilla/ICMIZER.

I've been living under a rock for too long playing poker occasionally, working at the same time and thinking I could manage everything by myself, and become a Professional etc. (LOOL) Sadly, its one of the biggest misconceptions I made, I got way too ambitious. Practising terrible bankroll management mixed with mediocre poker skills. And now I feel like I've ran into a dead end and my progress just kind of froze. I've had some success previously, but i wasn't able to maintain it..

So today, Im coming out of my little rabbit hole gonna share some info with you guys, (as embarrassing as this is) and I'm seeking for some help. Advices, suggestions, opinions, anything will be highly appreciated. I really want to take my game to the next level and really grind my ass off...
Because I know and believe that I'm capable of much much more. Im highly motivated, and I really wanna turn things round... I miss making final tables, having deep runs.. So what on earth has happened, why am I am so **** ?

BELLOW: is the most recent data, I had way more hands/graphs as i use to play Pokerstars.com, but since Ive moved to france ive lost all of it). And i think ive locked my stats a while ago before moving, so you may not be able to see the graph, but my biggest netting did come from there..

Dont hesitate to write back, crap on my head if you have to, laugh at me... But as mentioned earlier any help, or even criticism will be highly appreciated ! Thank you 2+2 gang ! Im done with the WAFFLING....have a wonderful afternoon peepz...

Its not too much info to gather from the stats you show, you should include raise first in and allin adjustedbb/100 at the very least but either way nobody can give you an all around simple advice here in one post that will magically make things work.

However, given you play relatively low buy ins, I do not believe that the best strategy for those will make you have a positive non showdown line.

you are most likely too aggressive for these buy ins, too often trying to force to win pots. Saying that for starters.

Hey Cashcid Linc, thanks for reviewing and sparing a moment to read the thread.
You're absolutely right, ive realised how little information i provided after posting the thread...

I took a snap of these for the start, however Im not sure how accurate these fall to my play. I cannot for separate 6max and full ring data, the replayer accumulates for random 20k i assume..

Some number seem bizzare, I would have imagined to play way tighter..




p.s thanks for the advice in regards to aggression/stakes. definitely something ill take on board. And also in regards to what you said, could that sort of playing style for instance be more effective at different stakes. or too agroo - period. ?

The best indicator of long term success is improving and learning everyday.

I would suggest going back to live. What were your earnings like when you were playing live vs playing online cash games vs playing online MTT? I am curious because I am about to plunge into the poker "profession" but focused largely on fishy/drunken filled tables on weekends, holidays, etc.

PS I hate not being able to see the cards, the people and the tells... these could easily effect your game too. What do you think?

sharkscoped your names

avg % of field beaten is way too low for the stakes you're playing (48.4% winamax 49.7% on ps.fr) - most winning lowstake regs have this at 55%+

early finishes aka bottom 10% of field = 17.5% on winamax and 11.7% on ps.fr - should be like 6% tops

WTSD% = went to showdown
WTSD$ = won at showdown

You showdown too much and don't win enough at showdown w/ 49.2/46.8 stats , For reference my stats @ winamax over 175k hands are 45.2/55.6

Not sure if it matters but my agg % is roughly 33-35% from all positions and only 17% from the BB since I check rags a lot and play passive vs stations.

I'd say you play too aggressive w/ a red line that beats your blue at $9 abi mtts .

34/22 vpip pfr needs some work as well , get your pfr to vpip ratio up to at least 70-75% .

EP/MP PFR is too high IMO get this down to 16~ for ep and 17-18~ for mp , fold small pairs from EP but keep opening stuff like T9s JTs etc that plays well postflop .

books are outdated , training sites just wanna make money but twitch streams are very helpful . PS replays also help a ton , be critical ask yourself why a certain player makes certain moves .

Get software that helps you improve your game , analyze it from both your POV and your opponent's , start out with something like ICMIZER/HRC and add flopzilla later on .
