Small Stakes Shorthanded NL Poker Forums

I'm in the middle of a big downswing this month, so my confidence is getting lower day after day.
It'll be really helpful if you can review my stats and tell me if you spot any leak.

Playing way too tight on the button, can probably loosen up a bit in the CO as well depending on whos on button. Steal more from sb. Cant see your first picture, but it stands out to me that your 3b is higher in the sb than your bb. That cant be right considering if you 3b a fixed range out of blinds vs steals and dont 3b from bb vs sb steals, your 3b from sb & bb should be the same.

Won money at showdown is low and possibly went to showdown is slightly high. This needs more exploration from filtering hands and seeing whats going on in these spots.

Stop thinking about your stats.Think more about how to exploit different types of villains. Stats doesn't tell me whether or not you are 3betting the right ranges and frequencies vs different opponents, doesn't tell me whether you are cbetting or c/f the right boards. Just by you asking the question I think from a fundamental standpoint you need to change how you think about poker. Instead of asking what, ask why. Constantly ask why you do something.

That said, after looking at your stats, I don't exactly know what river cb means, but if river cb means triple barrel that % is ridiculously high imo.

thanks, you're right about all of these.

This is one of the things I'm aware of.
I think big part of the low w$sd is due to this horrible run, but I know I'm paying too many river bets sometimes and I'm working on it.

You're right, but stats aren't pointless, you can spot leaks from those too.
Stats are obv just a starting point.


River cbet is the times you fire the 3rd barrel after you did a cbet on the flop and a 2nd barrel on the turn. I think mine is possibly a little too high, but not by so much.

Shouldn't SB 3bet% be larger if we discharge that we 3bet on BB SB open. Because there are some hands that we can't call on SB because we might get squeezed by BB and we don't want to se MW pot if BB callas also, while in BB we can call more

Most important thing, which i can see is that you probably barell like a monkey, don't mind that you have weak range in some spots.

Too tight Btn open.

And too high flop fold vs Cbet, this could be a leak.

Also you have huge fold vs 3bet %, but your open raise ranges are slightly tighter, i can't really understand this !?

I would like to know your fold bb to steal. Seems like you schould read up on how to play from the blinds a bit more!

Also what others said, what i would do if i where you, beein in a downswing, open alot more otb and tighten up just a bit from early positions, and stop 4bet bluffing, and stop paying off alot preflop with marginal holdings. I would check up on how im doing with TT JJ in aipre situations...

Also i think you should think about if you are to aggressive overall, seems like reminding yourself on spots where you can take passiveish lines both pre and postflop would probably be good for you.

Can you post some c/r stats and won$wsf?

edit: Not saying that 4 in aggression is to high but its pretty likely it is.

edit2: and river call efficency (need a very large sample imo but it might be good to take a look)

Based on your stats: Your game from the blinds and on the btn needs work. You are folding to A LOT of 3bets.

When you take passive lines in the blinds you need to ask yourself: What does my range look like and how can I use that to my advantage.

When you are OTB: Think more about how the board texture connects with villain's CC range in that position and estimate how he will play the different parts of his range. Once you understand that you will be able to play A LOT more hands OTB.

Vs 3bets: Post some hands and ask about what range people would call with.
