After a nasty 30K hand breakeven stretch at 50NL (yes, I suck), I was getting quite disillusioned with this whole poker thing, until I decided the solution to my problems was more tables. So I tried a 16-tabling session and voila, problem solved:
No real coolering of others on my part here, it was more me flopping sets against retards or finally completing the occasional draw and getting paid. I did, however, dodge the nasty situation of having any tough laydowns, which is unquestionably my biggest leak.
This has been my big problem throughout my poker career: run bad and/or play bad for extended periods of time, get nowhere, then have these miraculous sessions where everything clicks, I run good and play well. I'm left with the situation of not knowing how good I actually am at poker, given most of my winnings come during these streaks of good luck.
Anyway, I also completed a 25k FPP bonus for $285, so my bankroll is at ~$1800. Obviously, I'm not even going to consider moving up to 100NL until I'm a consistent winner at this level.
On a side note, I seemed to have tightened up *again*, my VPIP going from 19 down to 16.5. At this rate, it won't be long until I'm not playing a single hand, and making millions as a result.

can probably open a few more hands from CO/btn but it looks solid, doesnt seem like you're putting too much money in from blinds
although VPIP from sb looks a bit high compared to your overall VPIP
keep up the solid work yo |

I played a lot of hands with you and I have to admit that you're one of the most solid players at NL50 and I hate being with you at the table. I can't believe you were break even over 30k hands.
Please do not sit with me :D.

Playing more tables usually means you automatically play less hands because you pay less attention to agressive players who you want to 3bet with junk sometimes. |
