Hey guys.

Ive been playing 200nl 5max at onGame.

So I have no UTG seat. I've been running at 21/15.... but considering there's only 5 seats, should I be playing looser, and if so, how much so? I'm wondering what the optimum style(s) are.

The tables are kinda average, maybe on the looser side of things.

On a typical table I play vs maybe one or two regs, one or two semi bad players and one or two bad maniac LAG or Loose Passives (40/5/1's, 40/20/3's types)

Also my position stats are slightly worrying me, as I seem to be raising pratically the same amounts from the CO as the BTN. I guess this is because theres likely more limpers by the time it gets to me when OTB causing me to raise less. How bad is this? I would love to gain an extra 4-6% PFR but need some more balls and encoragement.

Any suggestions?

Stats...

I play at Ongame a fair bit too. (400NL-1000NL, heavily weighted at 400NL)

I must say that your results in the blinds amaze me. You are a lot tighter than I am in the blinds...thats something I should at for my own game. I think you just helped me find a leak.

Your other stats are mostly very similar to mine. I run about 27/14 overall...and it really looks to me that most of my extra "looseness" (compared to you) is from the blinds. But I lose money in the blinds so I think you should keep doing what you are doing. Your win rate is better than mine too...although my sample is much larger and at higher stakes.

You are obviously a very effective TAG. I don't see anythign wrong with that. That type of game will serve you well at the 400s too.

I wouldnt pay much attention to my winrates, as you say its a small sample size (and I actually had a very hot period where I won 13 buyins over a weekend).

I do think my blind stats are quite solid though (eg SB 21/8)

So 27/14 eh, quite an interesting style, I might have to try it.

I doubt I'll hit 400nl for a year or so as I have some large BR expenditures first (credit cards, new PC and then coaching).

I guess this post is kinda asking what you all think of my position stats, and how I could run differently to change gears.

Ill deff try 27/14 but i would also like to be able to run at ~27/22 but thats just alot harder work
