    Default Help me not suck at $100nl (30k hand check)

    Help me out FTR. Ive played more hands at this level than almost any level ive played this year, and in a much shorter time because i actually feel like im playing for real money. The problem is, i cant sustain winning over any decent sample. I startet out playing well and running well, then hit some variance that also led to some bad play. After i poped out of that first little downswing i wasnt playing well and was just breaking even. Then comes last week. I watched some videos, read a bunch, and that was followed by me playing my best poker yet and going on a 12 buyin heater. Those are good when they are by thereselves, but as you can see thats not the case. Im in such a huge downswing and i feel like im spewing too much on top of that.

    I played a nice session last night where ofcourse i started by dropping 2 buyins immediatley, but battled back and finished up $100. Can

    Can anyone tell me what the f*** is wrong by looking at this stuff? Im not good with the extended stats, but i think positional play is ok, and overall stats seem normal. The one thing i see that stands out is the W$@SD. My normal numbers are at 51% over a 100k sample, and these are at only 48% over a pretty large sample as well. In this last "downswing" my W$@SD was only at 43% over that 3-4k hand stretch, so thats how (i think) you can tell its legitimately variance.

    Any help is greatly appreciated and if i can post anything else from PT, let me know.

    Thanks.

    also, specific attention to blind play would be good. I feel like i raise (read: spew) from the blinds too much.

    Stats look fine by themselves.

    Maybe try to find a situation that keeps coming up where you seem to get owned (like a turn or river spot that you seem to be consistently confused by) and post a few examples.

    Also, it could just be running like shit.
    when the vpip's are high and the value bets are like razors, who can be safe?
