Seriously? March has almost completely erased everything I won in February. Couldn't even see a flop with a hand better than AQ, and played 618 hands tonight without a single set. I'm playing against plenty of idiots, but they're donating their stacks to everyone else and only calling my bets when I'm beat. No one folds against my semibluffs and I didn't hit a single one of them tonight. Ugh. I'm glad I make a lot of money as a lawyer because I'm certainly not making any at poker!

you lost 200bb in one very small session of 300 hands.
it can get much worse

if they are calling off your semmi bluffs then it stands to reason bluff less.

The only hands a nit balances in his range are the nuts, the second nuts, and the third nuts.

2 buy-ins, and I finished the session down 4.

Picture was just the first half where I didn't win a showdown.

No problems. It makes me feel better to know that you guys don't consider this to be running bad.

just judging by stats, i think you're playing a little bit too loose (small sample size though so it might not mean much). tighten up so that you're seeing flops with stronger hands that can win at showdown

It's 6max. 20/16 at NL25 overall.

forgive me as im not a 6max player

but isnt 22/19 type stats most effective at nit stomping?

i don't know what the tables are like at NL25 6max but you might show more of a profit if you play a bit tighter

it doesn't matter if he plays tighter or looser preflop really as long as he just plays better post flop

i think nl25 has a fair enough share of regs you can pull off a very loose game like 30/25 with profit and also play pretty nitty like 15/13 and still show profit both ways.

also op consider that maybe you are too aggressive or letting pots get too bloated or picking bad spots to bluff/semi bluff as a reason that you don't win at show down enough and you should tighten up post flop. given it's a very small sample and i don't realy know what hands went on but just think about that.
