Sooooooooo pretty bad start
Graph:
played 4200 hands-on 2 tables, I was doing well in stretches but like an idiot tilted 10 dollars in 300 hands. I am a confirmed fish.
I've looked through the PT filters and can see I'm losing ALOT of money calling pairs on the flop then turn and river. I need to stop calling this because villains range is heavily skewed towards value hands better than mine, and even though i may be correct sometimes it is unprofitable and a -EV play.
This is filtered for pairs made on any street:
The main reason i am losing money are these call downs. They are never profitable and only an IDIOT would do them. STOP DOING IT FFS!!!!
I should be playing the flop aggressively and folding with anything less than 2p
I am also losing money with AK. This hand is useless unpaired and i should not float with it!
I also lose money whenever i call the flop. These people are not bluffing in general and i should only call with strong hands but mostly raise!!
I think to win 2NL i need to do these things?:
Don’t call PF if you can’t raise, fold
Only continue with 2p+
Don’t double barrel TPTK
Don’t bluff
Raise flops
Don’t raise rivers with air
Srsly don’t bluff
I'm gonna try this today. I should be able to win by betting flops when checked to, betting dry flops and stealing blinds.
Also a question, do you think donk bets are profitable? I think they get called too much even on dry flops
Now for the 5 biggest losers:

This is ridiculous, should probably have squeezed pre. I think a raise or fold on the flop would be best and the turn is 100% a fold. stupid.

An argument could be made to folding pre I think, but in a 3bet pot i should defo have folded the flop.

I should probably have folded pre, even though he is a bit shallow he will mostly have PP which I am behind

Not sure if this should be a squeeze or not but I'm thinking no, obvs turn and river are check folds.
Sorry for the long post, any feedback would be great (especially on what i think i need to do to win 2nl). I'm gonna read the mental game of poker today, i'm hoping it will help me alot
Should've called this "a fish tries to win" or something
