What i'm up to now, done with 1k $20 dons
so i stopped playing $20 DON's, just got sick of them, only played 905 according to sharkscope, i think i played at least 2 more than that. the graph is below, i believe i made between $40 and $80 less than the graph shows.
switched games and jumped up to the $52 DON's
since i started playing those again in the past week or so here are my results.
off to a good start so far in them. i haven't played much lately because i had my wisdom teeth pulled about 4 days ago and haven't felt like doing much since then. hopefully i'll be back to feeling normal soon and can start putting in some good volume.
currently playing a session of 15 of these now, AA lost to KK to get knocked out of my first one. not the best start ever, hopefully i run good now though.

low roi's, they can be very dull, and they can piss you off more than any other game. i stopped the 20's because people were calling so light when they shouldn't be, which is good in other games but not DON's in certain spots. once i switched back to 52's i liked the play much better. still a bunch of people making bad plays and getting lucky against me but not as much. i seem to be running at a bit higher roi in them. started off bad today though. hopefully i can run good and build my roll up.
also accumulates vpps 2.5x faster than 20's. hoping to make nova in 2 months or so and then have a much bigger roll
lost 3k playing cash games, i'm not up much if i am, its been a rough year again. no money back yet from the chinese thing, i'm hoping to get a good amount but who knows. i'm pretty sure i lost out on about 3k from them in january, doubt i see a third of that though.
i'm just trying my hardest to get to Supernova because its worth about 5k in bonuses and then i can actually have a roll again to play with.
hey pharreal, you seen a nice guy and I always liked ur blog, if you want to talk about Dons I can send u my msn and maybe we can fixe some leaks if u want.
Im not a perfect player but I do have one of the highers, if not the high ROI in dons 20s.
nothing back from stars yet.
its cool kizk, i know i'm playing fine, i'm playing good enough to be beating the $50's for 4% , i'm just running bad lately. i'll get through it sometime soon and be alright.
my roll is super low and i'm playing with 20 bi's and just going hard for SN before i bust my roll.......... GL me.
Well with such low maintainable ROI i suppose you will have much much longer breakeven/downswing streaks. Thats why i didnt like them really, also there isnt a huge amount of room for variation to play which can become a bit dull.
