Wow, for the first time ever, I'm in positive territory in an SBC. I have absolutely NO hope of winning any of these bets... my goal is to grind out as much profit as I can, and become a lean, mean cash playing machine. So far, so good, though I'm now above expectation... I seem to remember cracking AA with QQ, and I think most of my suckout hands were standard beats like that. I'm working on a bunch of leaks right now stemming from too much aggression. You can see from my red line that I'm probably playing hands way too hard, moving folks off hands that should stay around, and getting trashed by the ones I'm behind. I'm reading a ton, and watching a ton of stox vids, and going over my stats with a fine tooth comb. When I have enough 50NL hands, I'm thinking of getting a little coaching so I don't develop any weird habits as I move up... we'll see.

No idea how I'm stacking up to MHG here... I'm going to guess I'm ahead, though I barely played at all this weekend...



8. Best overall winrate over 10k hands

Won't even be able to judge this one for a couple more weeks.

  1. Good call on the horse betting, I will get a post up now. It looks like we have four jockeys, giddy up!

    And yes, you are ahead in the hands played, but not by much.
