Ok
So finished another small 25 game session, and have learnt a few things.....

2) Variance is a killer atm.

I suppose when he sets me all in on the river i should fold, but at teh $15's they do that with bottom 2 pair!!
Im cashing exactly 50% so only down in rake for the first 100 games, so hopefully winning a flip occasionally ( i lost something crazy like 12/13 on the trot at beginning of session today) Profitsville will be in sight.
Also stumbled across this thread on 2+2 which is now my bible:
All the HUSNG Knowledge you could ever want. As well as using all of this resource (i may print it and make a bible!) i have also downloaded some ush fold charts, so i can tighten (or loosen up ) my ENDGAME, as i feel i am missing some +EV spots when the blinds get big, that over 1k games a month could kill my ROI
Have decided to up my BR limits, and play more $7's for the time being and hopefully shall increase my profit
Also looked into PCUK as a new place to play these.....i mean Stars is great, and FPPs are fun but a Euro site, with 30% Rakeback, and 3x weekly tourneys with good prizes to use the PCUK FPPs in, seem like super added value for a HU Grinder......the rake is higher on these tho, the €5 games have .25c rake (but i would only need to play 400 games to earn €30 rb + additional benefits)
Stats for the month:
Played : 50
ROI: -4.1%
Winnings: -$27.94
VPPs Earnt - 155.57
FPPs Earnt - 233.36
Total FPP's - 2834.28
Also am Over half way to GoldStar and ~300-350 games will give me Platinum (depending on the stakes i stay at)
Naughty
Have fun sports fans
