My first day as a 2knl player. I also logged about 500 hands at a different site and make 4.6k there, so I ended up 2.4k for the day. I hope this variance doesnt becomke standard.

I realize now that the graph was for the whole day and I count my ups and downs through sessions, here is the last session that I was talking about.
