This is a nice find. I've been avoiding going through it all in detail until I had the time to do so, but that may never happpen, so I'm going to give it a whirl and see how far I get now.

I'm only going look at my stats since October 1 (for 6 max NL), since I think that should give me a reasonable picture of my play. 43k hands. I'll post any particularly interesting things I find here.

OK, so far, I've been happy with all of my numbers, until here:

This is the first negative number I've come across, and it's significant. I think this is definitely somthing worth exploring more, as it could be a significant leak. I don't limp much at all, but maybe I need to be three betting or folding more, instead of calling raises...

What you can do at this point is review some of you biggest losing hands and see what went wrong. I can already tell you that I need to start pitching ATo from the blinds when someone raises. That would have saved me a lot of money. I'm down with AKo too - I need to three bet that more.

Turns out I'm also an overall loser in multiway pots. MY worst multiway hands: JT, 33, AJ, QJ, QJs, and AKo. Yikes. This will require further investigation too.

33, 44, 55 and 66 are overall losers for me (BB/hand, anyway). Glancing through them, I am seeing some sick beats (flopping sets and being ourdrawn), but this is still worth further review.

I'm an overall loser with suited connectors too.

The definitely was a nice find. +Rep. IMO, it's not so much the content of the OP (which is great, mind you), but forcing yourself to go through all these steps and do a self-check up on your game. This is something we should all be doing regularly, and I doubt most of us do, especially based on the lack of responses to this thread.
