i will also include 2 screenshots here.

one at 10NL...small sample, but sometimes you know, after a couple years, when you are playing well. definitely positive variance in there, too, but i got stacked a bunch, as well.


two is at 25NL...the debut with shorting. again, a small sample. so, nothing to panic over, yet. i am taking 14 BIs with me as a cushion. oops. only 5 left...lol.


i CAN think of several hands where i didnt play 100% correctly, but a lot of these are horrid enough beats that if we swing sklansky's numbers around, i am running only slightly negative. but, hey, thats poker, right?

i will tell you this much, if you run 16/10ish or tighter, it will be hard to beat you when you have a short stack...and are aggressive with it. seems, at lower stakes, you can really only beat yourself. after all, i still see players calling huge psb's in raised pots with ATo oop, and felting it on the turn, with only the gutshot (duh) and calling 6X raises cold from the BB with A2o (c'mon).

and my personal favorite, limping AA from MP2, only calling the 5X raise from button and catching their set when against AKs on a A K Q flop!! who folds AKs there?
