I'll put in a few more short-handed sessions to clear this AbsolutePoker bonus. Out of the $150 bonus, only $45 of it will be profit if I manage to be break-even for the next 350 raked hands. If it weren't for the bonus I'd be down $105, so this has been a "free" lesson of sorts on the variance in short-handed play.

24% PFR

W$SD 12% (worst, ever)

BB/100: -23
I'll post a large chunk of the session. I don't think I played almost any hand wrong, just got the shit end of variance.
