Working my way up for once

Hello all,

My names sanswork and I'm a bad poker player with an oversized bankroll.  I have a nasty habit of playing way out of my skill range in levels way too high for myself due to this(I am the one that makes you all so profitable) so this challenge is for me to play at least 100 HUSNGs at each level on PS starting at the very bottom $1.50 level and not moving up until my profit on that level is positive.  I've included some charts below as well to show exactly how bad I've been at this.  I plan to update here every 25 games with an overview of how I'm going, where I'm failing, etc.  Wish me luck I have a big hole to climb out of :)

So 25 games in I'm at break

So 25 games in I'm at break even. If you subtract the loses from my attempt at multitabling hyperturbos I'm up 2.  Of course stuff like trying to multitable while still learning is one of the many reasons I'm in the position so we won't.
I watched a few of the videos last night.  I felt I've improved my opening range quite a bit but still have some pretty big basic leaks to work on for the next 25.
 
1.  I'm calling pushes too often with too weak of Ax I think.
2. Some mental inability to believe in people hitting flushes on the river
3. Playing too much OOP still
 
Going to watch a few of the hyperturbo videos now.

Up to 50 games now.  Down a

Up to 50 games now.  Down a bit more.  I am doing better with the Ax calls but still calling down light too often.  I also find myself trying to make moves which has universially resulted in failure.  Going to work on the ABCs for the next 50.
 
Time to read the ebook first though.

Keep up the grind. Sounds

Keep up the grind. Sounds like you have a good perspective, just try not to get too caught up in the small sample results (not that you are, but just sayin). GL.
