Time for another update guys…
Well it’s been 10 days since my last update and this is mainly due to not getting the volume in, I wanted to update at 100k hands but figured I’d do one earlier as my volume has only been 5k hands/day. I’ve got 49 days to go and need to get in another 520k hands to complete my challenge, I think it’s around 10.5k hands a day from now on, a tough task but my hands getting better every day and last night I managed to get in my first 10k hand day.
I’ve been running pretty badly this month, although my ev looks the be close to the same as my last graph I’ve mainly ran bad in situations where I’ve getten 80% of my oppnents stack in by the turn and them hitting their two outter of draw. I used to be able to beat 2nl for 22bb/100 but I guess the games are tougher these days and with the rake increase I’m probably looking at something along the lines of 14bb.
Here’s my latest graph, hopefully my next update will be at 150k hands.

Hi out of interest, whats your biggest down swing at the micros?
Also, you say you couldnt play 25nl whatever because of hurting yourself. But why move down to 2NL? I don’t really get why you can play one and not the other tbh..
I would think even if you just dropped down the tables it would have been a lot better win rate?

My biggest downswing at the micro’s is probably $300-$350 at $25NL, at $2nl it was only around $40 when I ran really below ev.
The reason why I moved down was because I’d broken my hand and because I had to concentrate more at $25nl I couldn’t play well whilst trying to but up with the pain.
Recently my girlfriend and I put aan offer in for a house so I’ve had to withdraw most of my bankroll for the deposit so right now I don’t have the roll to grind $25nl anyway, hopefully I can grind back up soon.

Hey man, been seeing you around on the tables, looking forward to your hand getting better, you moving down has coincided with a prop bet that requires me to play some 2nl, although having you on the tables makes people stack off lighter…
