If calculate correctly, that's appx $4.6/100 hands. on nl25 it is 17.5bb/100 hands in rake. That's A LOT, isn't it? I think it has to be beatable only if there are supertunas out there...
Update:
Been some very very crazy action going on, I managed to go very close to taking a 5 bi shot at nl100, but then I hit a major downswing as can be seen from my graph ^^. I am very very happy with the way my mindset is progressing and I am constantly learning every day.
I've managed to stay focus and ignore the money aspect focusing only on decisions, and I am slowly getting out of the downswing as can be seen from my graph. We done an awesome plo hu coaching session with Twice T today and it deff improved my game dramatically.
My 800 dollar bonus is currently 63% complete and I have untill december 15 to complete it. I believe I will complete it in around 1 week from now.
I have also decided to move my roll to FTP, so from next month I will be crushing FTP tables ^^, the reason being that I like the software a lot more, and also I can get double the hands per hour on it than on my current site.
Also my volume sucks big time, only pld 50 hours this month so far and cause site is so slow I cant play many hands, if I pld 50 hours on ftp I would of pld double the hands, so I am hoping from when I move to ftp to play a minimum of 50k hands per month hu.

u should take example from simo! He plays 50 hours in 4 days 
Update:
So basically this is how last month ended
I've been running fairly bad and i've found a major leak in my game recently. The leak is not actually a poker related leak but it's a mindset leak. Usually when I run terrible I have been quiting to avoid spewing money, but because i've been running pretty bad this means that i've been quitting alot. And if I am quitting volume>Variance won't come into effect.
From now on I will celebrate if I make a good move regardless of result ♦ and still smile if I lose.
The problem is that I am focusing on money way too much and not focusing on decisions. I am trying to learn how to lose 200 dollars and keep on playing my a game. I now know what has to be done, simply focus on decisions and don't care about the results. So since I know this I gotta just focus on getting my money in favourite and celebrate when I do regardless of the outcome.
This month has started bad, down 3 bi atm but I am gonna grind like a pro and should have a great month.
Peace out folks.
Update:
So I completed the bonus yesterday and I have decided to move my roll from PKR to Ipoker, simply because I can get double the hands per hour and software is alot better than the PKR one.
I have enough to take a 5bi shot at NL100 now so will be interesting. My goal is 2 play 50k hands a month of hu, this is my goal because I know I will almost always end up having winning months cause Volume > Variance.
So this is pretty much what is going on, I prob have 2 wait 1 or 2 days fo the withdraw to work, and funny enough I have an assignment for my college due on tuesday which I haven't started yet...So perfect timing I guess.
Looking forward to destroying nl100 hu ♦
Update:
After a long consideration I have decided to move to the Philippines in January.
I am currently still at college and I am unable to put in any effort, simply because I want to become a poker pro. With the rise of tuition fees I am given another reason to not go to university. College is currently taking away like 30 hours a week of my time which I could be playing poker, and the sad thing is, I am half assing it. So I have decided it is time 2 quit and give poker 100 percent.
The worse case scenario is that I fail and go back to studying and being able to give it 100 percent, so failing itself has its benefits.
However I know I am going to succeed and this is a big step in my life since I have never lived by myself before.
I feel as if this is exactly what I need and a couple of others feel the same ♦ It's time to become a poker pro baby.
It may sound crazy to the normal person, but I would rather try and fail than never try at all ♦
Wish me luck boys and girls! I am looking forward to having the time of my life. I don't mind hearing a few opinions aswell I guess ♦
I dont think u should quit (but i am a FR player with a nitty midset). I wouldnt quit untill i have enough of a BR to support a year of living costs+200BI of my stake.
Basically I am gonna grind like a pro and if I make 10k by end of Jan I am going baby

also kind of my opinion.
also, dont underestimate the fact, that u rly have no idea about swings in this game, esp since u play hu. u rly, have NO idea. its the swings and the variance that kills young poker plrs. make sure u are prepared for sick shit and losing big parts of your br next months.
however, i am just a nit overall. thats how i roll. but even with nitty attitudes, u can make it big, it just takes a bit longer.
that being said: i still like your line ♦
i mean, u are so young, life is so short and its the experiences that are worth living. sitting in boring uni is rly not for most of us (wasnt for me as well, still i forced myself to finish)
ship it big in PHI, i will visit u april/may!
enjoy your life, not many ppl have the opportunity and ofc the cojonoes to do it like u.
but rly, be prepared: hu online poker is full of swings. make sure your mindset will be rdy as soon as possible!
this is your life and your time. make it the time of your life and ship it biiiiiiiiiig

In order for me to go to the Philippines late Jan. I am required to make like 10k at that time.
This means I am on a challenge baby, I have untill late Jan, early Feb from now to make 10k! Let's find out what a real Mammuth is made off!
Wish me luck boys and girls, this means I am gonna be grinding for 7 hours a day minimum.
Gl with your challenge.
Are you going to PI alone? We are going to PI as well from January on, so maybe it could be nice to join us? Anyways, you can add me on skype if you want to talk about it.
You can also find some info in this blog:
Mission Philippines
Nice to see someone really going for it. Don't get too upset if you don't make the 10k in time, I'm sure something else will pop up.
Good luck!
It's not going to be as easy as you may think now, but def doable, so not trying would be a mistake...
poker > school
