11k hands - Stat review (.5/1)

peeko

Hey all,

I think I've been playing quite well recently. But was wondering what ya'll thought. I've had quite a few comments from people saying I should try be more aggressive. Will this increase my variance? I'm not a lover of loosing, and still have a bit to go regarding my tilt control. I find that playing 20/8 allows me to be in control most of the time. I make a lot of notes, and I datamine, so I try pick my spots well.

Can you see any leaks? Any room for improvement? Any adjustments I could make?

Cheers
Peeko

cant comment on your stats because i dont have a bog how to read them but its

LOSING not loosing. sorry for being a d*ck but i'm hung over today

Stats look good if somehwhat nittish.

phantom_lord

i don't get why my stats look so passive compared to everyone else. i bet lots

peeko

yeah was thinking that allright. My last blog entry read, Am I Nit?

Any problems with being a nit multi-tabling this level? I'm only playing 2 at the moment, will move to 3 again shortly to test it out.

The one spot it looks like you're leaking is the small blind. I started playing very differently from the SB in December and have started to make a very small profit in that position over my last 15k or so hands which is almost unheard of. I think alot of people lose too much money in that spot by completing with garbage too much.

Thanks Lloyd. I want to become more aggressive, and when I have the roll behind me I will probably experment at this level before moving to 1/2.


Ian, I've started folding a lot more hands in the SB over the last 3/4k hands, and I've noticed a big difference. I'm folding most of the time from now on. But like to call with SC's, gapped SC's and Small PP's. But am always, always so careful. Dodgy spot to be in!

Looks good peeko! You're folding in SB and BB from attempts to nick your blinds a bit much. Also you could probably raise a bit more on button! But as you say you prefer to play tight and lower variance. Once you build your BR up a bit I'd try loosening up a small bit in those areas. Saying that, your Won $ at SD on button is very good.

Can someone please exlpain AF? My AF is .99 (including Pre flop numbers whatever the hell that means) which seems quite low compared to others.

I remember luckylucky telling me how to get some graphs within PT, but can't remember how.

phantom_lord

you could probably do with loosening up on the button, I raise twice as much as you do.


hmmm, there's two one called poker patterns and another called poker grapher, if you google it you'll probably pick up a link on 2+2 for it.

You shouldn't include preflop. .99 is very passive. As far as I'm aware AF is a weighted average of your aggression on all 3 streets. Mine is somewhere between 1.5 and 2 as far as I remember.

Mr. Flibble

peeko, if you want to increase your aggression the easiest way (will change your game the least) would to be to raise with hands which you are limp calling with at the moment. Variance will increase a bit but hopefully win rate too.

peeko

Thanks for all the comments. I have an idea of the amount of money I want to make at the present level. When I get there, I'm going to change styles slightly to see if I can handle the variance.

- Open up more on the button
- Raise in front of limpers where I would normally call
- Open raise with PP<9's in EP
- Open raise with AJ UTG
- Try and defend my blinds a little bit better

Ste05

Yeah those seem nice and solid stats Peeko, (nittish, but effective at these levels) as I think I've already said to you, you could certainly open up a little more on the button, I'd suggest possibly try punishing limpers when it's your button more than you possibly do at the moment just increase your range slightly, alot of the time you'll either win it there or can take it down with a continuation bet. This way, not only will you win the blinds a large % of the time, you'll also get an extra 1 or 2 BB's added in. This doesn't sound like much but it really can add up (just look for the serial weak limpers, and punish them).

But a PTBB/100 of over 5 is good so it's obviously working for you so don't make any drastic changes, as it'll put you off your usual game, maybe try adding in a couple more hands into your Button raising range for now and over time you'll get more used to playing slightly lighter.

Also as others have also already said you probably don't defend your blinds quite as much as you should a 92.58% folded SB to steal and 85.14% folded BB to steal is probably a little high, but there's not a whole lot of value to be made here, and not playing pots OOP is vital and you seem to have that down pat. Nice stats keep it up.

ianmc38

You don't need to up your postflop aggression at all! It's already superaggressive and I reckon it compensates somewhat for your tight preflop play.

Looks good Peeko.
Your AF on Turn and Riv is alot bigger than mine..
But my VPIP is about 27 and PFR is 16...

I think u could open up a litlle slowliy but surely one hand type at a time..
What do u open raies with?

ian what else have u changed in the SB?????

UTG: AKs/o, AQs/o, TT+ (sometimes 99/88/77 depending on table)
UTG+1: Same as above, with the inclusion of KQs, AJs/o
CO: Same as above with the inclusion of 55/66, ATs/o, KQo, KJs/o, QJs/o, higher SC + gaped SC's. Plus suited Aces sometimes.
Button: Same as above with some random hands thrown in + lower SC's gapped SC's + suited aces. But not all the time.

I will open limp with PP < 10/99 UTG
I will open limp with PP <9/88 UTG+1 and only sometimes call re-raises.

This would be a general guideline for me, but I do change depending on the dynamics of the table.

valor

raise more and limp less, 19% vpip is fine but u should be 19/15 not 19/7
