Level: +$56.50 in 2.23 table hours (+14 BB at $2/4)
Overall: +$365.65 in 111.93 table hours
If I keep playing like this, I'll never get out of $2/4. Why do I say this if I'm up today? I'm making very bad turn/river calls because something inside my head tells me they're bluffing far more often than they are. I'm not going to post hands today.

Stats: $1/2 (2/24/2007)
In a quick run, I've won enough to step back up to $2/4. I tried overlimping more, and the stats suggest that I'm actually getting looser. It's 27/19/2.3 this time compared to 22/15/3.0 the previous time I was at $1/2. But these stats are over fairly short periods, and the variance has probably not been very well shaken out yet.
Just for fun, I looked at some of my stats
It's also fun to look at stats based on the number of players to the flop:
Anyway, it's now time for the picture show:

Day 52-8: +$27.25 (+14 BB at $1/2)
Level: +$213.25 in 15.85 table hours (+107 BB at $1/2)
Overall: +$320.15 in 110.17 table hours
A quick hour-long session took care of the last bit to clear this level again. I look forward to beating $2/4 this time by playing well and not getting hit with the variance stick.
Hand 1: I knew that the river card was bad...
Preflop: Hero is MP with Ad, 9d.
UTG calls, Hero raises, 3 folds, BB calls, UTG calls.
Flop: (6.50 SB) Kc, Ac, Qc (3 players)
BB bets, UTG folds, Hero calls.
Turn: (4.25 BB) 9h (2 players)
BB bets, Hero raises, BB calls.
River: (8.25 BB) Jd (2 players)
BB checks, Hero checks.
Results:
BB has Js Ah (two pair, aces and jacks).
Hero has Ad 9d (two pair, aces and nines).
Hand 2: Against this villain, I might have even been able to squeeze off a river value bet, though it would be incredibly thin.
Preflop: Hero is SB with 7h, Ad.
4 folds, Hero raises, BB calls.
Flop: (4 SB) Jd, 7s, Ks (2 players)
Hero bets, BB calls.
Turn: (3 BB) Kc (2 players)
Hero bets, BB calls.
River: (5 BB) 5c (2 players)
Hero checks, BB checks.
Results:
Hero has 7h Ad (two pair, kings and sevens).
BB has As 6h (one pair, kings).
Hand 3: PAHUD stats clued me into villain's preflop looseness and overall aggression level. That made this an easy calldown after the turn check-raise. He wasn't a maniac, but he had a high enough level of aggression that I felt he could be betting a pocket pair.
Preflop: Hero is MP with Qh, Ks.
1 fold, Hero raises, 3 folds, BB calls.
Flop: (4.50 SB) 4s, Qd, 4c (2 players)
BB checks, Hero bets, BB calls.
Turn: (3.25 BB) 7c (2 players)
BB checks, Hero bets, BB raises, Hero calls.
River: (7.25 BB) 6c (2 players)
BB bets, Hero calls.
Results:
BB has Tc Ts (two pair, tens and fours).
Hero has Qh Ks (two pair, queens and fours).
Hand 4: Here's a rare coldcall in 6-max. I was encouraged by the fact that UTG was a bit weak postflop and that the coldcaller was really bad.
Preflop: Hero is Button with Ks, Js.
UTG raises, MP calls, Hero calls, SB calls, BB calls.
Flop: (10 SB) 7d, Kd, 8s (5 players)
SB checks, BB checks, UTG checks, MP checks, Hero bets, SB calls, BB folds, UTG folds, MP folds.
Turn: (6 BB) 8c (2 players)
SB checks, Hero bets, SB calls.
River: (8 BB) Kc (2 players)
SB checks, Hero bets, SB folds.
I'll post stats later (as usual).

Almost there... I don't really have any comments, so I'll just post a couple hands.
Hand 1: I was very confused with his action. It turns out that he's just an idiot.
Preflop: Hero is MP with Ad, Jd.
UTG raises, Hero 3-bets, 3 folds, UTG caps, Hero calls.
Flop: (9.50 SB) 4s, As, 7c (2 players)
UTG checks, Hero bets, UTG raises, Hero calls.
Turn: (6.75 BB) 4d (2 players)
UTG checks, Hero checks.
River: (6.75 BB) Td (2 players)
UTG bets, Hero calls.
Results:
UTG has Kd Qd (one pair, fours).
Hero has Ad Jd (two pair, aces and fours).
Hand 2: Villain's line makes absolutely no sense to me. He should have either bet the river or just called the 3-bet.
Preflop: Hero is BB with 5d, Ad.
UTG raises, 2 folds, Hero calls.
Flop: (4.50 SB) 5s, 7s, Qd (2 players)
Hero checks, UTG checks.
Turn: (2.25 BB) Ac (2 players)
Hero bets, UTG raises, Hero 3-bets, UTG caps, Hero calls.
River: (10.25 BB) 8d (2 players)
Hero checks, UTG checks.
Results:
Hero has 5d Ad (two pair, aces and fives).
UTG has Ah Th (one pair, aces).
Hand 3: I struggle with these sorts of turn decisions. When he just called the flop bet, I figured he was likely on overcards. If that is true, then improving to my king is generally bad because a bet won't get called by a worse hand, but better hands may check-raise (and I don't like folding top pair HU). So I checked behind and was prepared to call a river bet.
Preflop: Hero is Button with Td, Kd.
1 fold, MP raises, Hero 3-bets, 2 folds, MP calls.
Flop: (7.50 SB) Jd, 7c, 6s (2 players)
MP checks, Button bets, MP calls.
Turn: (4.75 BB) Ks (2 players)
MP checks, Hero checks.
River: (4.75 BB) Qd (2 players)
MP checks, Hero bets, MP calls.
Results:
MP has 9h 9s (one pair, nines).
Hero has Td Kd (one pair, kings).
Hand 4: I probably should have raised the turn here since it was called and not raised in front of me. I still don't feel comfortable pushing edges like that. Here's one of those spots where I'm overlimping a hand that I might otherwise have folded.
Preflop: Hero is Button with Td, Qh.
UTG calls, 1 fold, Hero calls, 1 fold, BB raises, UTG calls, Hero calls.
Flop: (6.50 SB) 8s, 8c, Qs (3 players)
BB bets, UTG calls, Hero calls.
Turn: (4.75 BB) Th (3 players)
BB bets, UTG calls, Hero calls.
River: (7.75 BB) 5c (3 players)
BB checks, UTG bets, Hero calls, BB folds.
Results:
UTG has 9c 7s (one pair, eights).
Hero has Td Qh (two pair, queens and tens).
Hand 5: Here's an odd one. I didn't bet the flop because I had been betting a number of flops and was probably on the verge of getting "too much" action from the other players. So I was content to check-fold this if someone else wanted to pick it up. But then it got checked through. I improved, but the board improved even more. I figured it too likely for one other player to have a heart, so I just check-folded my straight. Turns out I was wrong, but that's okay with me.
Preflop: Hero is SB with 7d, 6d.
2 folds, CO calls, 1 fold, Hero completes, BB checks.
Flop: (3 SB) 4h, Ah, 3h (3 players)
Hero checks, BB checks, CO checks.
Turn: (1.50 BB) 5h (3 players)
Hero checks, BB bets, CO calls, Hero folds.
River: (3.50 BB) 9d (2 players)
BB bets, CO calls.
Results:
BB has 8s Ks (high card, ace).
CO has Ac Ts (one pair, aces).
