Thanks for the support geekybratt and Purple0wnz!
I almost hit my 20 bb/100 goal this week. Just short at 19.6 bb/100.
Do you guys shove wet boards with a strong hand against bad players, in hopes that they'll call with draws or top pair? Maybe it's more profitable than betting 2/3 or 3/4 pot 3 streets. At NL2 at least.
That's what I was wondering last week, so I did a bit of an experiment. Checkout the Week 4 video, linked below, if you want to see how it turned out. It's just under 10 minutes.

I would love to hear what you guys think about the hands in the video, and the going all-in idea. Is it more profitable than betting 3 streets?
+$32.70 - Profit from Week 4
19.6 bb/100 - Win Rate
$96.70 - Balance to date
4.8% - Progress so far
I don't know why I'm still playing at 1¢/2¢. I need to move up faster if I'm going to hit this $2000 in a reasonable amount of time. I'm sure I can beat those stakes, probably with a lower win rate. But if it's anything over 50% of my current win rate, it will be more profitable.
So next week I plan to move up to 2¢/4¢. I'm wondering how differently the opponents will play at those stakes, and if I can adjust. What do you guys think about the skill of 4NL players compared to 2NL?
Or I might move my winnings over to Pokerstars. 888's buggy, stone-age software is getting on my nerves. And i want to play 6-max 100bb deep. Can't do that on 888.
Here are results from Week 4:
