I haven't posted in a couple of days. I have been running bad and honestly just didn't feel like ranting on BTP. You've all heard it before.

I decided that I was going to give NL 25 a shot again. I'm slightly under BR for it but that's OK.

I played NL 6man this afternoon and tonight and had pretty good results. I made some totally retarded calls and lost 3 BIs but woke up and won them back. My stats are looking much better at this new level too.

Hands played at 6manNL25=2634
VP$IP= 15.6--Needs to be higher
Amount won= $130.70
BB/100= 9.92

Current Bankroll = $483.90

I've played 19.6k hands since starting this. Play has been going well. I started playing NL25-6man. I even took a shot at NL50 last night with good results. Here's my win graph to date.



Since I'm up to 19.6k hands, I think it's close enough for my 20k checkup.







Running pretty good. I think the best advice was to play 6 man rather than FR. Results have been much more profitable.

Comments on leaks?

Hands played 19637
VP$IP= 16.46--Needs to be higher
Amount won= $370.10
BB/100= 4.20 and climbing

Current Bankroll = $642.05

Haven't posted in a couple of days. Played in a home cash game Wednesday. Dropped $80 there. Mainly on 2 hands-AA vs 87o and a turned straight vs a flush draw. Got home and spewed a little online.

Played Thursday night and spewed some more.

Tonight, got it all back and then some. Can't win every night. My BR would be higher but played a couple of MTT's and SnG's and only got a 3rd in a SnG.

Hands played 22364 (+2727)
VP$IP= 16.43--This seems to be my level.
Amount won= $428.55
BB/100= 3.88

Current Bankroll = $667.85

OK, the light came on last night. JJ questioned me playing under BR'd for NL50 before but things had been going well so I thought no big deal. Last night, the big deal became apparent. Here's the graph from yesterday and today's sessions.



So, lesson learned. I'll stay in NL25 until I have 20BI or $1000. Also, until I have won $500 at NL25. Adding that because of SnG's and MTT's.

Hands played 24777 (+2413)
VP$IP= 16.41--This seems to be my level.
Amount won= $473.15
Amount won at NL25=$295.60
BB/100= 4.13

Current Bankroll = $679.42

Done for the night. Decent evening at 6maxNL25. I've played 13,344 hands at NL25. When I get my BR up, I plan to give NL50 a shot. But not until then.

Hands played 29495
VP$IP= 16.46--This seems to be my level.
Amount won= $601.30
Amount won at NL25=$427.25
BB/100= 4.35
BB/100 at NL25= 6.40

Current Bankroll = $797.80

I haven't posted in a few days. I've been playing a lot but with very mixed results. Here's my winnings graph through February.



As you can see, I took a few dives in the old BR the last week. I began wondering what was going on. What was I doing wrong? I studied my PT history and stats and figured out that I was chasing too much and refusing (donking) to lay down 2nd best hands. I did a little regrouping and came back.



This week really hurt my win rate but it'll even out in the end.

Hands played 41736
VP$IP= 16.25--This seems to be my level.
Amount won= $763.60
Amount won at NL25=$524.60
BB/100= 3.82
BB/100 at NL25= 5.23

Current Bankroll = $880.62
