Thank you for your concern. I ve already had that kind of downswing .After playing 2 years or so sngs i know everything is possible with the variance.I was one of the nittest player back then using huge brm for my limits.But i had one problem.I couldnt drop a limit if i had too.Now i can so i can use a more aggresive brm.

So i ve started a staking deal again 1 week ago . I ve finished it yesterday . Once again i was profitable while playing under a staking deal . Maybe i play with less stress so my game is better or i am just lucky . The fact is that i am on profitable in all 4-5 staking deals i ve made so far and then huge downswings come , biased? maybe

At least i ve made something like 300$ from bonuses in one week +another 100$ from rake race of august.I ll take again a break so i can focus on my thesis and finally graduate and on october i am ready to grind once again .

Time for a little recap of the last year.
After loosing my whole br cause of the ft shut down i lost all the motivation i had to play poker.I was doing some staking deals for some time but after a really bad session i decided to stop poker and focus on my university.I ve graduated in January and since then i was looking for a job.Almost 10 months later i am still looking for one . It is just impossible to find a decent one these days with the economic crisis.Broke up also from a relationship of 5 years so no job , no gf , no money , back to parents home and finally full tilt was reopening.

Poker seemed as a good idea to start again.Of course i had made an oath some years ago that i will not invest any more money on that game.Logged in on my pokerstars acc and saw i had some fpp left. Played some fpp satelites and had something like 30-40$ to start.I ve always wanted to play hu sng so i started grinding them. Started with the 3.5 $ and climbed fast to 7$.But after a month being b/e on 7s and since i was eager to make some money i dropped that format and started sngs once again.At the moment i am playing 6-180ppl sngs along with some turbos and hyper turbos low bi mtts. I ve managed to reach a 3k roll now and decided to start the 15s this month.Also built a new pc piece by piece ( i ll upload some photos in a later post) and playing at last with 2 screens so i ve increased my multitabling to 10.

Thats all for now , cya in tables

tl;dr; version

Stopped poker , graduated , no job , no money , started poker again, roll 40$ to 3k$ in 2 months, currently playing sngs 15s at pokerstars

It looks like a bomb from a James Bond film. I'd cut the yellow wire. But then, as you know, I'm not very computer literate. And welcome back.

It is a "bomb" for sure :)

@dydukas As far as the specs you re right. I dont expect many ppl to be into this but i ll post em just for you

CPU : intel core i5-2500k currently overclocked a bit at 4GHz
GPU : asus gtx 570 with their nice dual custom air cooling
Motherboard : asus p8z68-v pro
Ram : Corsair Vengeance 8GB (2x4GB) DDR3 1600MHz
Psu: Corsair CX750W MODULAR 80+ SILVER
Case: Corsair Obsidian Series 800DW
Monitor : Dell UltraSharp U2311H 23"
SDD : OCZ Agility 3 240GB
HDD: 2x Samsung Spinpoint 1TB
Cooler: CoolerMaster Hyper 212 EVO

Bought this last November ( soon it will have its first birthday )
Case is maybe overkill but its the best case i ever had so far.
Took me like an hour just for the cable management to be perfect but
as you can see from the pics it was worth it.Also i saved like 250-300
euros just by building that pc piece by piece instead of buying the
whole from one store.

Next goal is to have some nice winning months and award myself with an upgrade , maybe a second gtx 570 or a new gpu.
