Poker Tracker/Blind analysis

[pegboy1]

Hey guys,
Picked up poker tracker three a couple of weeks ago. Im finally getting enough hands to look at some trends in my playing. I have noticed that i am losing a great deal of chips in the small, and big blinds.

vpip./ amount blinds/ amt. won./ without blind/
BB 10.66 214,860 -164,087 +50,773
SB 18.99 105,615 -74,870 +30,745

For you guys that have poker tracker.....is this a common theme in your play too, or is there something in my game that is drasticly wrong? Any input would help....lol.

I dont know much about those #s exactly...but the blinds are -EV positions...My only two nonprofitable positions..

Just about every player's most losing position's are the blinds. Prefectly normal.

The amount of $$ I lose in the big blind is atrocious, now that I check out my stats on Poker Tracker. A big leak in my game that obviously needs fixed.
The button and cut-off are my strongest positions, no surprise there.

I had just noticed this as well. My most winning position is Button and least is SB. I'm positive on BB but for some reason Button plus 5 is my second worst position? Anyone know why this would be maybe?

Button + 5 = UTG + 1 ?

Earlier positions tend to be less profitable.

utg + 2 i think but yeah I think im goin to restrict my play more in that position.

Also, be careful about sample sizes. Stats by position are already dividing yur total number of hands by about 9 so in order for these stats to mean anything you really need 90,000 hands in your database. Even with 90,000 winnings by position is still a little shaky.
