Not grinding this Sunday properly.  My screen was blacking out earlier and saying that the graphics card driver had crashed but successfully restarted or something.  Didn't want it to die or anything mid session, would be a complete disaster.  Going to contact support and will resume when I'm assured its fixed / not going to die.

I think realistically I will manage 3 or 4 sessions a week, Ray says that about 10 of these run per day and about 20 on a Sunday, so somewhere between 35 and 50 per week seems reasonable (assuming those figures are correct).

My typical grind is start loading between 4-5pm and keep somewhere between 18-24 tables open till I stop regging (usually somewhere between 8.30 and 11pm depending on how I feel).  If I'm grinding on a Saturday or Sunday I would typically start early afternoon and finish in the early hours.

I asked this because I know when people lose they lose a bit of motivation. I did the same in my staking thread (although to be fair, I still put in the volume just wasn't doing updates). I know that you had some issues with software and stuff so I expect you to have missed some grinding sessions because of that but according to sharkscope you've played 217 games.

You originally predicted to be playing 35-50 games a week so now approaching 10 weeks you should be doing a little better than 217 games.

I wouldn't worry about losing investors money either, you've just gotta knuckle down and play 'em, the $35/180's offer a small edge and variance is naturally going to be really high so it's always going to be like this at times, especially at the start of the stake (so seems the trend on here ).

Sorry should have updated.  Had a nightmare with work the last couple of weeks, been working (got tons in at the minute) / stressed out and haven't really played much at all.  Managed to get an hour or two of zoom here and there but that's about it.  Admittedly when I started the package work was extremely quiet and I hadn't factored in the weeks when I would have tons do.  Will be playing a full session tomorrow, going to reduce the number of tables I play and increase my ABI and hopefully that will get us out much quicker.

Just focus on playing good mate! It's all you really can do.

Yeh went through a load of HH's, I had increased the number of tables I was playing slightly and although there was nothing major, there were a few spots I would probably have played different if I had a little bit more time.  As we know the edges in the bigger games wont be as large so I think its going to be beneficial for us all.  Grinding today obvs, already reg'd the first but it probably won't start for another hour or so.  GL_TODAY.

good luck!
