I like these numbers :)Wonder why the turn aggro is so high...? Any ideas?

Betting too many UI hands on the turn.

Do you play ring games or 6-max? Roughly one in five steal attempts seems a little high. Of course, I don't know what PT defines as a "Steal attempt"; I just noticed I have a 13.26% in that, and I know I'm not thinking "OMG Blindz 4 me plz" one time in seven I have the chance...Besides that, why is your turn aggression markedly higher than your flop aggression (Which is in turn only slightly higher than your river aggression)? You like to check/raise a lot, right? It's either that, or you're for some reason sucking out a lot on the turn and going nuts then.Additionally, I think your preflop raise % is a tad high, though that may just be from small sample size.

i try to steal too much. thats a big weakness in my game. if i go the slightest bit on tilt or am tired i will get overly aggressive against the blinds. thats usually the first sign i should probably go to bed or do somethin else.as for the turn, see my previous statement.i think my PFR% is very strong.

actually your blind stealing should be up around 35%, so your doing it too little. These are 2/4 stats right? if so you need to increase your sb VP$IP to around 35%. If you are getting a 1/2 blind structure, then you can loosen up a little bit. a 2/3 blind structure(like 15/30) you can pretty much play anything within reason. In a 1/3 blind structure(like that of 3/6 and essentially 5/10) you need to tighten up to where you will complete with hands that you would limp with in late position

Yeah, your vpip and pfr have a nice, balanced, look to them. If anything I like my PFRs a little higher. Anything less than 10% is too passive for me.

this is just based on my experience at 2/4.i think your PFR is very strong. however given that you are raising so much pre-flop and your flop aggression is reasonably strong, you should have enough information by the turn that your aggression does not significantly increase. i find it is advantageous for opponent's to wait until the turn before getting or acting on information when they are aggressive post-flop since it is much more profitable to slow-play them, and since your pre-flop raise percentage is high, it is likely i'll be able to find a dominating hand against you at some point.just my two cents - given my knowledge of 2/4 and my more limited knowledge of PT stats, your stats could represent a very profitable player. but if your profitability is not as high as you might like (should be 1.5-2bb/100 i think for those stats) i think you are not picking your spots well enough and might consider becoming a little more passive, both in your pre-flop raises, and in your tun play.this could be way off since i'm not too sure how aggressive those numbers represent, but by other people's posts i'm guessing they are a bit high, and i think i read somewhere that the numbers should generally increase, which yours don't.cheers,daniel
