Thats the graph for my first 40 hour week. I decided to go to fulltilt and start playing rush, and start at nl10 and work my way up again since, I haven't had a winning month in about 4-5 months..kinda hurting my confidence a bit. I'm at 14/12..ran super hot as you can see in the beginning, then just got trucked all in one session, my aces losing to 88's allin pre and all the good stuff all day...lately its been up and down, all my big hands the turn and river just shit on me, and i had 3 hands 450bbs deep with someone where I literally flop the nuts, and then turn and river are disgusting and I have to fold. I won't lie and say i didn't tilt away any buyins, I tilted off two, pretty much just called fish limp shoving with 89s..the other one was just stupid. None the less, I'm proud I did my 40 hours, I get 7.5 buyins in rakeback this friday so thats nice haha. I still have 200 im waiting for on the 15th for absolute poker...I missed having it every week on ftp.

Quick question about rush, I was looking at where I'm making the most money in positions/how I'm playing them...all of them are positive except the blinds...$243 out of $461 in bb and $177 out of $237 in sb for nl10......Is that normal for people at rush? or am I not defending close to as much as I need to be, I just feel its alot harder defending them especially at nl10 where people call with anything and then im put oop with shit hands.

Everyone has negative winrates in the blinds. Most people have bad winrates in the blinds by defending too much so don't feel bad about not defending enough. Just 3bet bluff people that know how to fold and 3bet for value against the donks that can't fold. Easy money.

Without reads it's pretty hard to call in the blinds and make a profit. There's obvious spots like multiway pots with donks and you have a pp. But something like unknown guy from CO opens and you have KJo? Probably a fold without reads.
