like so many other pokerplayers (ones that are **** such as myself) i dream of being a winning poker player longterm, been playing a year now so with that wealth of experience and some good bankroll management (which i never had in past) lets see if i can make this deposit stick, was going to go with sit and goes or tournaments for this challenge initially as was just hoping it be easier due to fact microstakes tournaments seem crazy fishy, but i dont enjoy those formats enough really and variance must be wild in tournaments, so cash games it is i guess which i still suck at, got $40 in my account, 20buyins for 2nl or 8 for 5nl wish me luck going into the future im definitely going to need it.
Really i want to make enough so i can go play live poker thats really my goal with this challenge, im not a rich guy so i cant just casually save up that sum of money bankroll outside of poker, so hopefully i can build one online and learn as i do so and get better as a player as time goes on so im prepped for live play somewhat.

Mate, no room to be 'a bit naugty' and jump stakes and play there anno 2018. Stick to your bankroll management. It's not cool to move up without the bankroll to do so - it's fishy.

todays session over getting late, played about 4.5hrs total today roughly 2-5tabling (think 5tables is too much honestly feel too rushed think 3 maybe 4s better) spread out over 2 sessions

graph for today below of both sites deffo bit of difference in playstyles gameflow on the different sites

definitely ****ed up somewhat today think bluffed one stack off as a bad bluff tilted i think 2 off total really in bad calls or bets or something so yh lucky im in profit, after i bluffed a calling station half a stack and yh the few pots/medium sized i ****ed up on thought best to pack it in for the night, got unlucky some spots got lucky some others swings and roundabouts as they say, can definitely improve and play better next time though that is forsure
