Highest VP is small blind. Yeuuch, gross.

These are the same issues you had when your roll was first at $400. You just don't like tightening up.

FWIW, getting forced to put AA all in on a dry flop is about (thinks)... 75% asking to lose a buy-in. Apart from complete 85/6 idiots, decent raises on flops are very strong hands. Or decent raises in general.

What are you calling 3bets with? be very careful with 3bet calling. Do it when full stacked and holding just about any pair. But not if the table/villain is 3bet happy coz you wont' hit often enough. I used to suffer from not leaving a horrible table. Take it personally etc. see if you're doing that. You have a cunt to your right/left? keeps giving you shit and you can not hit against him. Think about leaving.

Play one table and don't open a second table until you really feel like you know the players (not just their stats). Then stay at two for a while until you know both tables well. Only then think about opening a third. And no more than that. And fuck silver star for FUCK sake. Forget these star rating things until at LEAST 25. Probably 50nl if you're part time.

Drop down to 5nl for a while, grind some more cash and some more confidence.

I really feel like all of the above is sound advice and hate to sound egotistical or like i know my shit, coz i don't, yet i do strongly feel that you would do well to think well on them. They're not complex maths nor do they involve detailed homework. Just some basic housekeeping.

And get the FUCK out of those blinds. Fold mofo.
