A. You're taking a medium size beating in the blinds. Your stats look reasonable, so it looks like the problem is with your post flop play OOP. Take a look specifically at your cold calls from the blinds. If you are losing with any of the following hands, you have some substantial post flop leaks: AQs, AQo, AJs, KQo, KQs, JJ, TT, 99. The more of these hands that are negative when you call, the bigger the leak.
Also, take a look at the remainder of your cold calling range to try to figure out what range of hands you are calling with and losing more than if you had just folded. A lot of people are leaking this way by calling with anything from suited connectors to ragged suited aces. Just look in your db for the hands that you are losing with.
The problem is probably that you are playing these hands passively, and taking lines like xc, xc, xf, or xc, xc, xc and losing pretty big pots.
B. Your win rate in the cut off looks super low, and is seriously cutting into your win rate. There are four possible explanations for this other than variance, and you will need to check them all to make sure you do not have a position specific leak:
1. Calling 3 bets--There are two things to look at here. First, are you losing $$ calling 3 bets? If so, this is a leak. Second, are you calling when it is the button that 3 bets you? If so, this is a leak.
2. steals that get called. You are looking to make sure you have a positive win rate when your steal gets called.
3. steals that get called by the button. Also, you may wish to check to see what your win rate is when the button calls you. If it is negative, then you need to table select differently, or tighten up your stealing when you have a button to your left who is exploiting you.
4. iso plays. You should have a significantly positive win rate. If not, this is a leak.
