I did 3k hands today, and at the end I was only up 1 buy in. After the first 500 hands I got bad beat so bad that I decided that it was time to experiment (I was up two buy ins in the beginning, even with a couple of split pots that would've let me be up 4-5 buy ins...). I ran into a train and was down -2 buy ins so I started experimenting with calling and stuff.

All in all it was an interesting day. I played loose in some spots and tight in others and made some very questionable plays which I'll have to review. Eg. In some instances I'd give up 1/4 of my stack with second or even third pair if I think the guy is on a draw or I'd bet out hard even with second pair if I suspect he is chasing a draw.

Very interesting session... also, In the end I was up 3-4 buy ins on all my tables... which meant I spewed a lot lol

i think you are too short-term results oriented dude.

don't let minus a couple of buyins in 1k hands make you PLAY DIFFERENTLY! you're at 10nl ffs, just play solid TAG poker and the profits will roll-in over time.

don't play loose, don't call down a lot...jeez, these are the two principle qualities of your opposition at this stake which allows you to profit so damn much.
