made the switch back to 6 max, full ring is too robotic for my tastes and I have to share the fish with even more nits.
break even shot over 1k hands. been 4 tabling it.
today had a lot of fish on my table with good position but was pretty card dead.
the humongous jump in EV and my winnings were from this hand:

The $600 surplus is from the bonus which I don't really consider a part of my bankroll.
Gonna take a couple shots tomorrow wish me luck.</description>

		<description>Made around $888 on Cake (inc. rb) from shortstacking NL100 and 200 the first half of the month. sorry to everyone who hates short stackers (everyone) but I just had to do it to clear the bonus asap cause I hate Cake!

After I cleared my bonus I threw in cash to Stars again and started playing NL10 to try to roll up for NL25.
I had to move back down several times cause I ran pretty bad at NL...</description>

		<description>yeah so everytime I take a shot at NL25, I get lots and lots of standard bad beats coolers suck at flippingz etc.
I kept trying it til I dropped to around $400, so I had to jump back down to NL10.
I decided to 9 table it (usually 4-6) just cause I didn't want to think and just fucking plow through fish who don't even want to win a pot.

I decided to make it a little interesting cause at NL2...</description>

ok so this tournament is &quot;crazy payout&quot; in that the pay is randomized. 10th place is the best and it pays $240.
I tried losing but I was running too good...
Why can't this happen when I [b]want[/b] first place??
Oh well $70 ship.</description>

		<description>So I really want to be an all around poker player and I feel my cash game is pretty good right now. I've been playing a lot of freerolls and FPP buy-in tournaments to try and get better, but I always seem to get stuck.
I'm either too tight or too loose and I never seem to be able to get the right mix.
Has anyone else had this problem where you just seem like you can never build a stack and yo...</description>

		<author>vlseph</author>
		<description>I started the day studying for my chem final and I got like a 23/34 points on it, translating to a 73 average for the class. I was sweating the ride home about how I'd have a C and it'd fuck my GPA beyond belief since I'm going to get a C in Bio, too.
Found out 73 is curved to B- :) yayyy

Then I got bored and started short stacking NL200. I've been doing 4-6 NL100 tables with the rest addin...</description>

		<author>vlseph</author>
		<description>I think I had a pretty decent November. I failed a chem and a bio exam though so fuck but the poker is pretty decent.

I talked to my cousin about rebuilding and he said if I was already a winner at NL25 there should be no reason to rebuild, so I rolled myself up for NL25 and started playing and I ran pretty bad at first so I moved myself to NL10 to rebuild the roll after losing 5 buy-ins.

About 22 hours of work at NL5 and 10k hands at 18.32bb/100 I have a roll for NL10 now.
I've requested a check of like $700 from Stars to be sent and requested a $700 cash out from Cake to my eWallet account. It's quite a hassle as I have to wait about 24-48 hours although it's been much more now, and then e-mail eWallet and a...</description>

		<description>Instead of actually staying out my ban, I'm working with a $100 br on stars and gonna rebuild it. I'm going to cash out my cake and previous stars roll which is about $1400.
I'm buying in at NL5 for 100 bb until I make $200, then I'll buy-in for 200 bb.

After I hit $300 playing NL5 deepstacked I'll move to NL10.

$500 - NL25

$1000 - NL50

Haven't made it to NL50 yet, but winning agai...</description>
