Hey so this is my first real blog post I guess, been lurking too long

. I started grinding and beat NL2 and NL5 really easily, so now I'm working my way up playing NL10. Have only been playing NL10 a few days, loving the rakeback and running pretty decently. Started out running bad with some tilt, but now have recovered and this is what I have so far @ 3.72bb/100

and then I looked at my showdown winnings and yikes :x

I know it can be standard at micros, but should it still look like this @ NL10? Below are some stats if they help at all, I would appreciate any and all advice. I have been 16tabling and I know dropping tables will improve my game, but im gonna keep playing like a nit and getting money till the games get harder. Thx for your help!

Don't expect your redline to be very good. At NL10, people are much more likely to call with marginal holdings in all aspects of the game. It is just the nature of the stakes

If you want to improve it some though, maybe consider upping your 3bet when in position, and perhaps squeeze a little more. However, I would not worry about it if I were you. Continue playing your game and worry about redline when you get to higher stakes.

Standard redline if those stats are for 16 tabling 6max, as it means you're pretty much giving up a ton of blind money
Also your WTSD and W$SD correlate very well with you tight play as you're showing down less often than avg (poor redline) but winning more at showdown
Don't up your 3bet imo as 5% is pretty sufficient here. If you can sustain 3.72bb/100 16 tabling then don't fix what ain't broken. Worry about improving your game after you move up.

you call way too many 3bets (im assuming the ppl youre playing with arent 3betting very light).

you might not be cbetting enough or double barrelling in the right spots possibly.

redline is not really the biggest deal at this stake. Worry about making money. You're obviously taking advantage of the bad players with your positive showdown winnings and have a solid playstyle. Put in a lot more volume and you'll see your winning continue to increase assuming you don't run bad and play the same way you do now.

Dont worry about your redline. Mine looks the same if not worse at NL40 6max but I'm winning at 7bb/100 over 80k hands.

After all is said and done, more is said than done.

Red line doesn't matter on any stake. Winnings are your goal

Honestly your redline is fine considering the number of tables you're playing, keep it up Hayden =D

I wouldn't worry about it too much. And if you're winning already I would really try to adjust in too many spots as you may end up just mal adjusting and owning yourself. Just think about spots where you can pick up more monies and possibly stop c betting then shutting down in other spots. I feel that's a pretty big leak for most people. But I wouldn't really know much of your gameplay till I actually saw it.
