So my total bankroll is at about $320. Not a great start. I busted another casino bonus. It's time to try the big three. I took more roll from riverbelle so now I have $65 left to play. I started playing $2.50 S&G's at riverbelle and have done ok. They are pretty easy. If you play like a nit, and play maybe two hands and get about half a stack from someone, your in the final three. I may do these for a while. I'm having a hard time Isolating guys in ring. It seems that every hand someone is drawing to the flush. I got my aces cracked last night on a three way all-in pre flop with two guys flipping over 3s,6s and 7d, td and doesn't the Diamond hit the flush for one but the 3, 6 spades gets the boat. Just getting stomped. I think part of the problem is playing for the big win. I was doing some calculations last night after taking some bad beats. And If I make 30bb/100 (pretty good rate) over 1000 hands that would be 300 bb or 30 dollars. ( I think I may not be playing for that pace. I need to stop trying to win stacks at every table every hand I VP$P. At 6max I would need to make 1.8bb in an orbit (net). THAT"S THE FUCKING BLINDS. Am I wrong? Am I working too hard? 1.8 BB every 2 orbits at $10NL is $0.36, at $20NL its $0.72!! I know I'd have to make up for the times I miss and the times I bet preflop, and the times I lose at showdown, but my pace is off. I've been aiming much higher. I'm going to shoot for "slow and steady and not stack off without the near nuts. Tell everyone at Prima $10NL I'm a folding machine. This explains to me why my poker trends never looks like all the others I see (one side of the mountain going up with a few bumps. Look at mine above, they all look like that. I will post some of my stats when i get home so I can start getting some input. I think for now, while trying to build the roll I won't worry about missing out on some edges and just stick to the basics. I know, I know
