Today was a GREAT day for the .10/.20 tables I played, and a HORRIBLE day for the .05/.10 tables I played. I also accidently sat for 3 hands of .02/.04. I also treated myself to a $2.22 MTT that I busted out of the money.
In the tournament, 6 hands in I get AA against KK on King high board, and was almost immediately down to 300 chips. I end up getting back on track, but was still shorthanded a bit, and got to push with KJs from the SB against a MP raiser who had A9. Flop is jack high with an ace on the river, and I was out in 215th place, with 144 places paid I think.
As for the cash games, I accidently sat at a .02/.04 table and played the 2 blinds and buttons and showed a small profit of $.11. The .05/.10 game didn't go well. I played 640 hands with a lost of $7.38. Very very bad. Nothing seemed to go right there, and can't blame any one thing. As for the .10/.20 games which were usually 2 of the 4 tables, though at times was 3 of 4 tables I played, I played 876 hands and a profit of $35.10 which is an amazing 20.03 BB/100 hands. It is amazing to see how much the rake adds up with each level you go up.
I am almost to the point that I can play some games that will actually earn me some FPPs that I can hopefully start to use as a "bonus" since Pokerstars has no rakeback, though I may start to use them in FPP satellites to earn T$ that I can use to add to my bankroll. I think that after a week or so, as long as there isn't a couple bad days, I will be bankrolled enough to start the .25/.50 games, but I am going to try and get about 10k hands at .10/.20 before I do that.
I also just wanted to mention that if anyone else has a poker blog and wants to share links, just let me know.
Starting Bankroll: $84.83

I'm doing exactly the same as you mate after busting my roll. A link up would be nice, will add yours later.
Woo hoo! You're a mean mofo! :)
Congrats on the milestone. In some sense, you are more than halfway to $100,000 (started out with a 1 figure bankroll, now you have 3 figures remember common logarithms?).
My bankroll has been decimated down to $50, so I'm trying to build it up the same way you are, at the shorthanded limit tables.
