grinding it out

[bluebird]

New to NDP still reading up. Been grinding low stakes for about 4 months at absolute poker. Started with 50 playing the lowest possible micros I could find. Following very strict bankroll guidelines and after 4 months its starting to pay off.
After several bad sessions playing low micros I decided to just grind out stud h/l until I could build enough to start at 25/50 cent nl. My goal was to build to 200 then I'd have the minimum 20 to buy in 10 different times. Not sure how to add hand historys yet here but here the starting hand and final hand.

Stage #1702668717: Holdem No Limit $0.50 (7-2) - 2009-10-21 00:47:32 (ET)
Seat 4 - BLUEBIRD ($20.75 in chips)

Stage #1702847358: Holdem No Limit $0.50 (7-2) - 2009-10-21 04:28:11 (ET)
Seat 4 - BLUEBIRD11 ($310.55 in chips)

After 3 1/2 hours of play the table went dead on me.
Still have much to learn and hopefully higher stakes to achive. My best session so far at AP

Good grief - growing $20 to $300 in 3.5 hrs! - If you didnt have to buy in more then the initial $20 then move this to the jackpot celebration thread! I dont call 3.5 hrs "grinding it out" I call that being on a rush!

Going 15x stack on a cash table in three hours is definitely a sick rush.

In fact, i'd say anything over 8x is still a crazy rush.

Congrats.

That was just a hot seat. The majority of the last few months has been grindin. Hoping that wasn't a fluke, have the history if anyone is interested in taking a look at it.
