Default 100k in a year update: i can\'t beat .05-.10

Hi everyone. I thought I would update my "make 100k in a year" bet in a new thread. (crib notes in case you didn't see first thread: I have been loser in online poker for two years, but I bet someone $10k I could make $100k in the next year. I started with $5k.)

~4 hours 3-tabling .50-1: -$100. I thought I was playing better than most people, but I'm not sure pokertracker agrees. After about 3000 hands, I have a VP$P of around 35%, and I see this is significantly higher than my table average! I can't believe it, I thought everyone was playing so loose, but actually I was playing more hands! I've seriously cut down the # of hands I play from my pre-bet levels, but I guess I need to find some more to trim.

Ptracker says I'm Loose-Aggressive-Aggressive (tasmanian devil icon). Is that bad?

Anyway, I was a little depressed after losing a couple of humungo pots back-to-back that wiped out a potential winning session (one bad play and one bad beat), so I decided to drop down and play .05-.10 for a little bit, figuring I could pick up an easy $5-10 and gain a tiny bit of confidence. But no, instead I ended up playing for an hour and a half and lost $15. Worst part is that's like 300BB, so my monthly graph in BB isn't going to look good.

Current BR: $4195
To Go: $100,805
Mood: A little down. If I could take back the bet right now for no money I would strongly consider it.

Rackeback doesn't count for your bet right? If not, I suggest some serious grinding.

Go back to basics. Find a preflop chart and study it. You are playin too many hands.

Did I just say this in BBV?

[censored] it homie. LAG IT UP!

A Blind monkey with a wrench and a poker book could win 100k if he had access to this website.

Seriously, not only do you make stupid bets and likely have a gambling problem, you have to be retarded.
