a 3800 hand sample is worthless to analyze.

just enjoy the heather ur on, don't get too happy, or brag, or cheer, because the suffering you will get when you run normal, or below ev will crush you xD. Just react like "psh, im gonna try and play solid no matter"
Shouldn't react like this, will hurt you I think.

My 2 cents xD

(and it's super tiny sample size)

Thank you for the advice

You are doing well, that's great. You've collected over million play chips to play for real money.
I am happy for you that it's all working well so far. You are having fun, which is the most important.

As others have mentioned, there will be tough times that'll make you want to jump bridges.
Just remember that swings do exist. If you can run at 49bb/100 in 4k hands, it's also possible for you to run at -49bb/100 in 4k hands.
I'm not gonna stop you from being happy, that's pointless. But just be aware that swings do exist and there will be rough times.
Hopefully you don't take those swings too seriously as it is a part of the game.

Other than that, play well and do well.

i must admit i'm curious what kind of winrate could be sustained at the rock bottom stakes. For what it's worth my stats from NL5 are 23bb/100 over 8000 hands. that would probably be the most profitable stake for me to play except for rakeback lol, and it's so boring.

but yeah, go read Catyul's article on varience and bankroll management. You need at least 2 million hands to give a good estimate of your real winrate.

i don't get upset when people suckout , I m acctually happy because I had the best hand, when it all in :D

it's much more tilting when you get coolered, because then you have to doubt whether you really played it correctly. Very hard to tell sometimes.

hope I won't tilt that bad, i have rules tough , I play only max 3 tables and when I lose 300bb i take 2 hours break :D

dont check behind flop just bet it, no need to be tricky

I'm looking foward to see the end of this heater

checking the lfop with 99 is bad

i sure could use some heaters right now

I have no idea why you'd check back that flop.

here's why it's impossible to sustain:
