    Not being an expert, it would be great if someone could confirm or shoot down my observations/reasoning regarding these stats. I don't have a whole load of experience with hem or ptracker.

    There's a few things that glare at me.
    Firstly your losing, but not only that, your running about 8 stacks ahead of ev. That says to be your either pissing chips on draws or gettting in with second bests. What kind of hands are you losing with, overpaira? TPTK? maybe your over valuing and posting these hand histories will help you a lot.

    Secondly, and I'm not really sure about this.. your flop/turn/river aggression % are almost all the same. My stats typically show a high flop aggression and diminished aggression on the turn and river. This is because most of my cbets either take it down on the flop or are given up on off I'm called. I'm not looking to double barrel unless I pick up equity on the turn. Being in position is also a factor. People aren't usually floating me if they call the flop so i need a good reason to bet the turn/river if I'm holding air.

    Steal% is low. Read spoons articles on blind stealing.

    Aggression is low. So I wonder if you are slowplaying your nut hands too much. Positionally you crack 2 in one spot. I read in a hud post from someone that 3 is about consistent with ABC poker. 1-2 are slow players and 4-5 are heavy bluffers. Your not going to make any money not betting your big hands. And since your losingg most of your dollars without a showdown I'd say your letting yourself get out drawn and getting to involved calling with weaker holdings then folding later streets. Both of which would be characterised by a low AF

    I agree with everything your saying here.. most of this was pointed out by my coach so I think you for re-affirming. I am working on it.. but it's helpful to hear it again.

    though i may be misinterpreting your point. i personally don't see any reason for making this comment. OP is being perfectly reasonable and diplomatic. he seems to be seriously looking to improve his game. and, as best i can tell, he has welcomed the opinion of anybody who has tried to help him thus far.
