Hey, thanks muchly for the response.

Ok, i've got my graph here:

try and view full size for clarity.

In answer to your question, which maybe the graph will do anyway, yes overall i'm a winner at both stakes i've played. I deposited $40, blew half on SNGs then was told there's litte money in that Vs cash and was promptly given a good few resorces by a good FTRer. Now, as you can see in my sig, i have $170 and have had two decent downswings in that time worth 3 buy-ins each.

And this eve i was kind of on a heater so that's nice, didn't know which way it was going to go. Here are my stats for March and pretty much all of my 5nl plays since i started at these stakes:

So you can see the cooler up top.

And so ok, i feel a little calmer now. But that cooler, when it hit amidst all those previous wins, made me think i was just running hot and that THIS was the truth. I do think i'm impatient. I see some people's graphs and there's no straight horizontal shit or large dips, just voom, up. So i get nervous.

Ranges. Funny you should say that, at 2nl i had no clue about ranges but these days i DO note when someone raises, min raises, limp calls etc. and wait to see a showdown. Then i'm all over that note shit.

However, my issue of late has looked like this: 20/10 to my right say, 80/5 to my left who never folds. I see him limp with AKs and maybe raise with Q4s and call a 6x raise... and this is from actual memory... with 82o. Range? you tell me!

Tonight that guy almost cleaned my clock with 95s when i raised 5x with AKs. Board came down 9 high, paired by the turn, i even fired out once. So people like that can take everyone's stack, then probably give it back to someone else.

One final note. Tonight i was a lot more aggressive and it seemed to pay off. I would bet 5 or 6x then if i hit with two limp callers (often) i'd fire 4/5 then same again or full pot or even more on the turn. And i used to slow play hands, not any more. Get CONSTATNLY fucked by slow playing aaaaany decent hand. And i mean ANY decent hand.

So, your comments are welcome. Thanks again for the feedback!
