Interesting night!

I had a decent night, but I ran about 5 buyins below EV, which is an odd feeling at the tables.  I made around $30, but I could of made around $60-$70.  My table reads are beginning to get better and I have really started to force myself to analyze hands when I have a monster and to take that extra second to put them on a hand before I push the money in.  Everyone needs to do this when playing and when you can start guessing ranges, I found two time last night that a huge over shove on 4th got paid twice because I figured the hands out and knew that my opponents could not fold their holdings. 

I also really started hammering people with extremely low showdown frequency and c betting the absolute shit out of them, and in turn people with High showdown frequency I have been value betting the shit out of and getting paid more and more from these fools calling down second pair.  These two stats in a HUD during Rush is sickening.  I am about to add a 4th table to Rush, I think I have a great grasp on three and the extra rack will be great to receive.  I had my first $20 rake week and I had the highest month of  winnings at micro poker in my career, making almost $200 at .02 .05.  Not even three months ago, the understanding of the game that I now have has greatly increased, and I am generally staying out of trouble at the tables, ensuring that I do not make those ill timed bluffs.  I am greatly enjoying the game more and more everyday and really do hope that one day I can do this for a living, but I have a very long way to go.  A side supplemental income on the side of around a grand or two a month would also be great and I do believe that I can get there very easily from the .25 .50 levels.  The goal though is $1000 online from nothing and I am almost half way there.
