Quick update:
BR is $12k and I'm playing $400NL.
I am still running soooo good. I have barely been playing. I'm sure I'm running over 10BB/100hands for the week. Don't know exactly though. I realize I can't keep this form up and there will be a downswing at one point.

My aim isn't really to reach $5k NL. I can't see myself ever playing higher than $2k NL. My realistic aim for poker is to beat $1K NL.

I've played a bit on Party this week too and it seems quite easy. I feel comfortable at Party and Ongame $200NL. Haven't played $400NL on party yet.

Had my best day ever on Friday. I won $1025 in approx. 1 hr (maybe 1hr15mins - not sure exactly). Cashed out till after my exams now (again!).

Even $400NL is quite empty at Ongame and that's what I'm currently playing. A few days ago I logged in and saw there were only 8 short-handed tables of $400NL running and they were all full! So I had to play $200NL instead.
So I might have to switch over soon (or part time anyway). And I'm going to be playing $600NL soon so there'll be even fewer tables running.

Good luck and visit my site!
