On the bright side, I've still been killing RV. Yesterday I won 2 $100 hands, including one for $135, my biggest ever.
My only problem is that I don't spend enough time there. I really need to work on that. It's a wired mind set thing. It's not like i'm not on the computer all day anyway.

They did not try that stuff.

On which site do you think I'm playing above my BR?
I would guess RV where I was playing a $50 max NL table with only $300. I realize that's no padding, but anytime I get below $250, I can drop down.
Lately I've been on a run there, but I'm keeping it at .25/.50
