Put in 503 hands today, all at $50NL, and ran hot, 32.50ptbb/100. This is good, as ideally i don't want to be at $50NL for very long, as the money isn't good and it's easily the most rigged level.

I didn't mention previously what my attempt at bankroll management during this challenge will be. $400 = 8 buy ins at $50NL, and i will move up whenever i have 8 buy ins for the next level up, until i get to $400NL (i might take shots at $600NL/$1000NL if feeling frisky), which is the level i'd like to beat consistently for the next academic year (while building a roll to play higher once i've finished uni!). I have played there before, and it's a really good level, because it's still perfectly beatable (although there are some TOUGH players) and the money is very good. I will move back down if i drop 3 buy ins at a level and grind back up.

1: Flop the nuts, 2: have someone shove on you, 3: ?!?!??!, 4: Profit!!!!

Slightly tricky play against the obvious 99-QQ pays off

Poker is easy when opponents try plays like this against you
