That's a bit high even for a nit. You're either missing a few value-bets, or calling with the worst hand a bit too often, if not both. The very low WWSF number is partly an indication of running badly, but it typically also means you're not bluffing as much as you could. It's really hard to make money in this game if you only win 40% of the time when you see a flop. Ideally you'd like it to be about 45% with your VPIP/PFR numbers.
You've run pretty badly in this sample (more than 4bb/100 below EV when all in, which is something I've just done in a similar samplesize, so I feel your pain). Try not to let the runbad affect you mentally, and try and be a bit more aggressive. Steal a bit more on the BTN, and 3-bet a bit more in SB v BTN opens.
Thanks Arty, I appreciate feedback, I've been using a very narrow value 3 betting range, I need to make my 3 betting range more polarized, add in some more SC, A2-A5s etc.
I've been trying to table select as much as possible to be facing players with VPIP/PRF of like 40/0 or larger, mainly trying to target fish and do a lot of bluff catching, at the same time I think it's caused me to get too passive, basically trying to get a good hand with sdv and get to showdown as cheaply as possible and when I get a strong value hand then trying to get three streets of value.
I am basically using Doug Polk post flop game plan in categorizing hands post flop.
I want to get the Grinders Manual like you suggested top improve.
