    $27,278

    Lost a few hundred tonight and didn't get in much volume. Had a monkey wrench thrown at me which screwed my afternoon grind so I was unable to play this morning. Tomorrow should be able to get a little volume in during afternoon and get a lot in later in the evening. Thursday and Friday I should be able to play a couple of really long sessions

    Want to give everyone an update on how things have gone and plans moving forward. I used to write a blog weekly but have kind of converted that to the stake rails.

    Review of Stake so Far and Plans Going Forward

    Profit 17 days in and we are +$4,663. I am content with that but I want more!!!

    Volume I am pleased with the volume so far but have been playing a little less than I would like but that will change after next Wednesday. Someone mentioned to me today that it seems I am putting in less volume as prior stake because Merge volume has been about 1/2 as what it was before.

    The Merge volume has been cut back a bit but you have to remember we are running 2 sites nowso some of the volume has shifted to revolution and I may add a 3rd to the MIX with ACR in a couple weeks. The Revolution rb and bonus is manually added in throughout the day. The revolution bonus of $500 is 1/3 cleared and we have 70 days to clear the rest which should be no problem. This is also continuously added into the bankroll updates every day.

    Volume going forward

    Merge volume for 6 max and ring should pick up. They eliminated 15-30 + HU but we weren't getting a ton of hands in those games anyways. Also there have been between 5 and 10 6max tables running every night mostly 10-20 and some 20-40. So volume should pick up and I will probably start sitting 30-60 HU on Revolution and may eventually start seeding 30-60 on Merge but not just yet.I may play some 30-60 if I feel it is a very good spot for us.

    Next 2 weeks

    Most peoples busiest months are the holidays/Christmas. For me the last 2 weeks of August and the first week of September are the busiest months of the year because of the start of the NFL and College Football seasons.

    For instance, tomorrow I have a college draft live that may run from 2 PM till Midnight. Then I have 2 more drafts. One next Monday live in the afternoon and one on Tuesday Night and I am commish of that league. So I have to get in touch with a lot of people and get things organised. I am also starting a radio show sometime over the next 10 days and I have to work on that as well but none of this will deter my grind. If I miss a session here or there I will always try and put in extra grind to make up for it.

    So plan for today is to grind the late shift again. I will try and get in more play tomorrow after my draft and then this coming week I will be putting in a ton of volume as well.

    Started off the night losing to a 1 outer and a 2 outer on back to back hands, surge ahead 800 or so then get stuck 2k in a 20-40 vs fish, win back 1k and flop straight vs his set and he quit because he doesnt trust online but the 10 or so beats he gave me before that were ok. he is playing PLO now like a boss obvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvv

    Lost few hundy or so tonight. Cannot update figure till tomorrow night or sunday because the figure I have offline is written down at home and on notepad on home PC and I will be away for at least 24 hrs. Know the figure off hand but dont want to guess and be wrong.

    Will update + and - if I play sessions till I get back home. So tonight prob lost between 200-500
