Hi Everyone,


I've been playing poker a few years and I am stuck at 2nl. I am more of a recreational player and I consider myself average. Here are some of my stats-- I am looking for some feedback that will bring me to the next level.


Thanks!

The stats dont say that much in your case. Post hands in the microNL thread and watch the progress roll in. My 2 cents

WTSD is fine. Agr and cbet are low. You probably only cbet when you hit or have a good draw. Work on board texture and walk through the hand in advance. Is this a better flop for me or for him? What turns can i double barrel? Work on that and your stats should become slightly better

Hi everyone! I have 17k hands in 2NL beginning this year. Not exactly a huge sample but I'm posting this now because I know I have some massive leaks in my game which I'm sure stick out even from a sample of this size.

Some of the leaks are apparent even to me just looking at the stats, I mean my W$SD% is absolutely atrocious, for example. It's puzzling to me because I know I currently make all my profit from showdown winnings. Last year I played over 50k hands of 4NL at party, and back then my redline was a consistent nosedive even though I was still beating the game for about 6bb/100. I have since learned to valuebet more and better (basically play less scared poker) and I'm quite glad it has begun to show in my redline as well (it has basically been breaking even for the last ~10k hands).

The biggest issue I can identify myself is that I'm probably calling too much PF and maybe not 3betting enough. So maybe I need to work on taking the initiative PF more often? Also I still have a lot of trouble defining and narrowing opponents ranges which translates to poor hand reading skills, which obviously affects all areas of my game. I'm trying to learn, read and analyze my play as much as possible, as well as take notes always.

I know I'm still very much a poker noob - I don't event know what all of the stats really mean and I know I have huge amounts to learn about the game. I'm trying to approach poker in a smart and methodical way however, and I'm taking my learning process very seriously.

Here are the stats and graph:








Thanks for reading this and I would truly appreciate any help or advice I can get.

3b more, steal more, cbet flop less

Hello this is my 2nl graph and stats. It seems I can't break out of breakeven. Any kind of help advice is greatly appreciated. Hopefully sample is big enough

I know its small sample, but maybe you could give me some advice. I feel overall Im running extremely bad at NL5 so far. Thx !

NL5 6max RUSH






NL2 6max RUSH

First i really dont think you should be folding that much to 3bet giving that your range is fairly tight, but i dont know... I would def. open my Steal from BU and CO.

What hands are good to call with (3bets) generally speaking ? Im obv 4betting premium holdings. But I struggle with what kind of hands I should call with

It really depends on villan tendency.. Look, try this:

open pokerstove or something, choose a range like 22-99, and see how these go along (in equity) vs a 5% 3bet value range, a 5% 3bet polarized, a 10% 3bet, a 20% 3bet etc etc etc.

In the BU you can call wider since the blinds 3bet range will be overall wider

Ok thx !!!

You are not stealing enough on the button, 50-60% at NL5 must be quite doable, I was tealing 70% otb at NL5. They do not 3b enough, as your own stats are demonstrating. You should 3b more from the blinds with all kinds of hands

Your VPIP in the button is lower than Sb ??? WTF? You like to play OOP? Play 15% more otb

You MP opening range should be approximately in the middle between your UTG and CO. You have a psychological barrier that CO is a steal position and MP is not.

Need some help here guys. I feel like I'm treading water at the microstakes and am currently breakeven at 10nl (lol sample, so I won't post it) and a slight winner at 4nl.

I see guys crushing these games for 10bb/100 or more...where am I going wrong? My 4nl stats are below:







Anyone know what I'm doing wrong?

You're winning at 5bb/100 thats fine

you have a low 3bet tho

That is a bunch of useless stats you presented

Stats by position would be nice
You fold too much to 3bets

BB stats:



SB stats:



UTG stats:



MP stats:



CO stats:



BTN stats:

Seems you are way too nitty 3betting and calling 3bets.

When someone opens, check out their PFR from that position, check out how often they fold to 3bets and decide whether a 3b could be good even before looking at your hand.

When you are being 3b, check out how often villain 3bets. If he is doing that wide, you need to 4b more. If his postflop play is very predictable, for example very high flop cbet, very low turn cbet, you should consider calling his 3b a lot. Or low flop cbet (50-60%) and never a flop C/R. The kind of player that just gives up when he misses the flop and is playing OOP.

Hey guys, I lately started playing 5nl cash game. If someone could point out leaks in my stats I would really appreciate it.
(((I know that it is a small sample but I am rec player and it its months worth hands for me.)))

Stats 5nl:


Graph 5nl:

• You are playing too many hands UTG
• Your cbet from the BTN is too high
• You fold too much to 3bets from the blinds when you steal
• You are not 3betting enough

I am amazed at your positive red line with your AF=2. That looks impossible.

Your WSD% is high - are you a shortstacker

Thanks for the help

i buy in full all the time.

I mean of course WTSD%, mine is 26% that is significantly lower. Not sure what that means, probably I am more a raise or fold person and you throw in a bunch more calls.

It means you aren't folding enough at showdown and you aren't nearly aggressive enough. You should be shooting for 23-27% wtsd and 3.0+ af

But how the hell does he get that positive red line

I am much more aggro and have W$WSF over 50%, but my red line is always below 0 (not that I care, I care about winrate only, just wanted to understand what is happening here).

Hi,

I decided to try 25nl 6max this month and so far i have enough hands to get some advice on my stats. I started running pretty good but its been a little frustrating lately. I feel like im running pretty cold but not sure how to analyze my own play, am i running cold? playing too laggy?

Id like to take some shots soon at 50nl but my main concern is, am i good enough for it? am i going to get crushed due to my stats at 25nl? Im not so happy with my WR here but i know its not terrible.

How can i improve?

thanks!






PS: one huge improvement i can point out, im tilting almost never i think. Very happy with that .

I guess i have positive red line because I go for showdown too often and do not fold enough as the stats show . How could i effectively regulate my WTSD % in mid sessions and in hands tho ????
