Ok so decided i cudnt be assed to play 10nl rush and opened up 2 tables of 25nl for a few hundred hand whilst watching the new HSP and made like $15 however one of them was a $65 pot so i dunno how i feel about the session. 25nl is so weak jus nits and loose fish, as soon as i hit $500 im straight on there 4 tabling. Played good and really aggro but a few spewy bluffs cost me $$$. Then won a $1 husng and a $2 husng. Gonna play a $5 45 manner a bit later too ( i know i know this is a ring game thread but hell im trying alternate ways to get to $2k and 50nl)

Ok a few days since my last post so gonna have to summarize. Had like $280 and on friday i got $30-odd rakeback putting me to about $314. Played 2 tables of 25nl last night and lost a little but made it bk up in HUsngs and 10nl rush and then chopped a 10-game tournament for $11 (yea a TOURNAMENT) chopped for $11 lol,
Made $16 today at rush and my ev was $11 which is nice but checked all my hands at 10nl and my winnings are -$40 but my Ev is +$41 which IMO is total BS. Also played both the doubles....lost AA vs AJ AIP in double A and then AK v QQ, the AJ v AA hand would've put me 1st in chips at the time tho so meh.....then on the double B this happened......
MISCLICK FTW hahaha. Was mildly tilting
Done take 2 on my account and my Gf's account aswell so another $50 will be coming to my shortly but things stand atm at....
Starting Bankroll = $100
Current Bankroll - $375.62

My gf went on a driving lesson so i played 4 tables 10nl rush and did really well, played really good imo and ended the session +$23.26 and EV was +$21.90 so not too shabby at all. Sux for americans who can no longer play but the rush tables a hell of a lot fishier nowadays wi jus eurodonks.
Didnt know how to play this hand at all tbh haha.

TLDR
Decided to summarise this thread as it is now September 4th and i have not accomplished my goal but have had quite a run to report about.
Since my last thread my bankroll was at around $340 and i lost all that playing high stakes omaha again, which incidentally did'nt matter as i would'nt have seen the money from Fulltilt anyway.
Since black friday i put money in to sky poker and was owning it. The site was in £'s and £20nl on there is like 5nl on tilt/stars. Ended up + about £500 with winnings and signup bonus etc on there but with no HUD and poor software it was difficult to play more than two tables at a time so i withdrew and started again on stars with $100 in late June.
I decided not to post my progress as i have turned $100 into between $250-$600 8 times and lost it all in one night playing high limit omaha. I quickly ran up my $100 into $180 at 5nl but my EV was like +$30 and then went on a huge downswing leaving me with just $20 profit and no desire to play 5nl. I gambled a little on omaha and managed to get to $200 and 10nl and haven't looked back from there.
10nl on pokerstars is a total freakshow. The rec players are terrible. The fish lose there money unbelievably fast and the reg's all seem to be breakeven fish. Whilst they dont make a lot of mistakes, they also fail to seize the vast number of BB's that people are waiting to give to them. Anyhow with a $200 bankroll i played 3 fast tables of 10nl started August 4th and have not had a losing session. My total winning for 10nl were $244.45 (EV +$190.97) with bb/100 at 19.87. After 12303 hands my avg. Vpip was 23.1% whilst my PFR 18.2%. But to be honest i think the stat i am most happy about is my non showdown winnings sitting at +$48.
With my winnings and my FPP's turning into $TD's my bankroll reached 500 and after losing $75 in my first shot of 25nl i am now back there with a $737 bankroll. After 2600 hands i am +$141. The fish at 25nl are somewhat easier than the fish at 10nl from my experiences in the past however i need to put in thousands more hands this time round.
Here is my Hem since going over to pokerstars as well as my Biggest omaha wins on FTP (The losses are a lot heavier )
For one final time...
Starting Bankroll = $100
Final Bankroll = $737.36
Final Stake = 25nl
Challenge Status = Failed!
However i am not too unhappy as i have proven to myself over 3 different sites that i can comfortably profit at NLHE and i just need to remember two things, DONT TILT and STAY AWAY FROM OMAHA!!!!! haha.
