Well, I'm coming to the end of my PP 45-beginner days and it's been really good.
I had to stop today because I've managed to lose about 20% of my BR in the last couple of days and on the verge of tilt. (I say verge because I'm either just about to, or have just started tilting).

I've played about 10K hands so far and my BR is now $280 or thereabouts, up from the $50 start, down from the nice $350 level I reached last week.

My PT summary looks like this:


There's a another 1k hands in PokerOffice from the iPoker sites I played for a bit. (Small losses there, at their $0.05/$0.10 and $0.25/$0.50 games, offset by the bonuses).

Both PT and PO rate me as Tight-Agressive Passive.
I think I've done okay at the $5NL tables, been playing 4 at once and making steady profits.
I was 3 or 4 tabling $10NL for a while, but then I need to be more focused.

I'm irritated I'll leave Party's $10NL tables a loser. I'd worked hard to get back to break-even at $10NL and done it and a spat of bad results has ruined that.
I was starting to really feel my game was falling apart, but looking over my games I see that the big losses which really cost were understandable.
(I've lost two buy ins with AA recently. One to a guy who hit trips 3s and I never guessed I was beaten until the showdown; the other was AI preflop against AKo who hit a flush. So I'll not lose sleep over that one).

I've lost a couple more buy-ins when I've hit trips. One I should have seen that he made his straight, but didn't. Others like someone turning over AA which they'd min-raised pf or the guy who caught a backdoor flush seem more acceptable.

So I'm on the move from Party soon because I'm not ready for $25. But what would you guys recommend? Look for $5NL somewhere else and work on some of my problems?
Work on my $10NL game instead? Perhaps cut back to 1 table and work on reads more? Start trying to play more smart stuff? Or just keep up the set-hunting etc and work up my BR to a higher level before worrying about that?
