I'm sorry to hear about what you've had to go through, happy to hear that the crushing continues nevertheless

That said, I just find CGs more profitable than donkaments anymore. I like shortstack play because there's enough gamble, and the stakes get pretty high (to weaker opponents' detriment) in deep runs or large prizepool multipliers, but also enough edge if the payout structure is complicated (with payjumps, bounties, forced all-ins favouring larger stacks a lot, etc.).
Around 3 years ago, in a bout of panic, I decided to spend my life savings on a kind of real estate, and my mental health issues are unfortunately continuing and limiting my play and study time, so I don't see much value in moving up until I have a reasonable track record.
I consider being staked with coaching a waste of EV, though. If I had enough energy to work as much as staked regs are required to, I'd be better off working on my own anyway.
I'm currently a reg at $1 Spin & Go Max (presumably to be rebranded as UFC Tornado soon and move to its own top-level lobby tab next to old-school UFC Spin & Gos, fingers crossed), at least for the start of this month, but I'm all for moving up quickly if the all-in EV turns out better than on the previous tries.
