    Default Loss rate from blinds

    What is a good loss rate for these positions ?

    It is possible having a >0 rate from SB?

    What should be optimal values for Fold to steal from Sb and BB ?

    i'm losing 21 BB/100 from BB and 10 from Sb and fold 85% and 90%

    Thanx for replies

    There's nothing wrong with being tight in the blinds. You occasionally have to take a stand and 3-bet habitual stealers but generally you should be playing the top % of your range mixed in with some good drawing hands with good implied odd situations. I'm sure you know this though. My fold to steal % is 80bb/90sb. Others will vary. Over a large sample size, you can be a winner from the small blind. Big blind, meh.

    a little town called none of your goddamn business
    20/10 is about average for a decent player

    If you become a great player you should be able to shave those numbers down considerably though they'll always be negative.

    From the SB you'll be OOP and forced to commit chips. This = a negative return on your money long-term vs players that are of equal skill.
