Just purchased hm3, but not too sure where I should be looking for leaks.

Over 36k hands my showdown winnings are -344, but my non-showdown is +541 - I'm guessing this is a leak, but what can I decipher from this?

I'm around +$200 in every position, but in SB + BB I am around -$370, could this indicate I am defending too wide?

Also what level should I be trying to beat a stake at? I've got 12k hands at 0.08/0.16 zoom (2c ante) with an 11.94bb/100 winrate & 9.64/100 over 7.5k hands with no ante - what sort of level would I need to qualify for coaching?

Any other suggestions at what I can look at to study leaks would be appreciated.

You are meant to lose money from the blinds

Yeah I know, but should the losses be so big?

Tamol, I suggest a little math homework to help you realize how much BAD decisions in the blinds REALLY cost you.

The math quiz: If you folded every time in SB and BB, how many bb/100 would you lose in each seat. What I am asking is...once you have invested you blind money.....if EVERY time you simply fold....what is the cost (defined here as XX)?

math Part II: how much more than XX are you currently winning or losing?

(BB....assume a raise in front and you fold. If it limps around to you and you check.... assume you fold to all aggression post flop so you "only" have paid your BB.)

In the SB over 3339 hands if I folded everything I'd be -$267, and I'm currently -$176, should probably stop flatting from the SB.

Thanks for the perspective.

Yeah I know, I usually flat small pocket pairs/suited connectors from the SB, that's probably the main leak I think.
