I played a session last night of 1,462 hands for +$27.82
. I also cleared my first stellar reward of the year for an extra $10. So after this session my bankroll is at $490.19. The session went very well and I got paid off on a couple of flopped nuts which is always nice :P.
So, I mentioned I was going to take a look at my stats on PT and look for leaks since I started this challange (...there are lots). I read a lot of the micro stats thread and there is some illuminating posts in there.... I only wish I had gone there sooner.
So I looked at my stats since I started and the most glaringly obvious leak is my NSW ... it looks like a sideways V with my SW line. So, I didn't think I was but apparantly I am to passive post-flop. I rarely double barrel turn as a bluff AND more importantly I often don't bet the turn for value... too much "pot control" and letting stupid draws etc get there and hands that would fold get there
for example c/calling OOP with a pocket pair when I know someone is just c-betting overcards and letting them river it when I should be raising flops. Furthermore, and related is my turn and river aggression factors being way to low I need to be betting or raising more.
Further passivity is my cold call from blinds and DB, especially from the SB being perhaps a little high
WTSD% - perhaps a little high ?
W$WSF - seems a little higher than other I saw not sure whether I should be pushing marginal spots or value-betting a little thinner.
W$SD - again seems pretty high.

Ok as a break from reading the stats thread I decided to try some of the things mentioned. It went well :P. FInished after 167 hands +$9.96 AND more improtantly I had a positive red line. My stats for the session are below, the only weird thing is my PFR being quite far from my VPIP but I can explain this by coldcalling with some pocket pairs. I think I could have got away with raising but my 3-bet was already 13% and I was in the SB when I got these pairs.(I know I said I need to stop cold-calling from blinds but .. but 93% fold I believe is ok, im not sure).
I had 2 regs two my left who I have several hundred hands on and they do love stealing blinds so I 3-bet almost everytime and only got called once, and they folded to 50% c-bet, it is sooo much easier than I thought haha. Furthermore I hiked up my AF [see below] to levels that are better, perhaps not optimal im not sure.
Now, I have a feeling I was on a little heater haha but I'm going to cut down to two tables and try and continue this level of aggression and hopefully reap the rewards
My stats from trying this out [yes I know 170 hands is no realistic sample size] hopefully I will get a few thousands hands in and see [and post] the results soon.

O, bankroll currently at $500.05 I'll play again later after guitar practice, if anyone thinks my thoughts on statistics are wrong or I missed something major please tell me :P
