I've had a crap December too, though I've broken even so I probably feel better than you.

One think I noticed was I was becoming tentative with strong but non-nut hands and not getting enough value because "I'm running bad and they always have me beat." Several times I left 20 to 50BB on the table because of this.

I don't want to downplay the improvements that need to be made but seriously, Red is running so bad I want to cry.

Clearly his BB play is not good. I suspect that he is seeing A TON of free flops from the BB in multiway pots because he plays in loose passive games. These pots are hard to win with 2 random cards against loose villains.

However, let's look at some stats:
- 7 overpairs vs sets to only 3 sets vs overpairs
- Losing money with 2 pair.
- 61% of showdowns won with trips/sets, mine is 74%! (last 3 months)
- 72% of SD won with straights, mine is 80%
- 76% won w/flushes, mine is 78%
- 81% won w/boats, mine is 89%
- 0% of showdwons won with quads. Mine is 100%

I think he is getting outdrawn a ton and paying off. He needs to be better at folding his sets when villain hits a flush and stuff like that I guess.
