Until today I've been playing heads-up sit n goes on Redkings. I made about 60$ really quickly then lost it from 4 games of really bad running and a couple of tilt. By this time I'd got the 250 points I needed to get PokerTracker free, so I spent half of today trying to get my money out of RedKings....something which they are apparently reluctant to let me do as the "Withdraw" button does nothing apart from refresh the page and Cat from tech support can't tell her arse from her elbow. It seems I'll have to catch a plane to RedKings HQ and ask for the money in person...
After spending a further 4 millenia setting up PT and the like I cashed onto Titan with £100 and whatever that converts to in $. PTs shiny exciting stats have kept me occupied and I'm going to post a few of them here for perusal.
VP$IP: 29.31
PFR: 22.06
AF: 3.54 (I still don't really know how this is worked out, or what it entails)
Total Hands: 724
Total profit -$30.53 (lol....I'll elaborate a bit more later)
Most profitable hands:
QQ: $16.88
66: $10.39
J8s: $8.63 (wtf!?)
Least profitable hands:
AA: -$27.97 (More on this in due course...)
AKs: -$10.22
AQs: -$10.06
AQ: -$9.49
JJ: -$5.21
THE ONE, THE ONLY:
J4: -$4.80
Leaving asside J4 which is my own stupid fault for being a moron....I think the rest of my losses have been horrendous luck. Here are the AA hands (sorry about the shit formatting...that's how it comes out):

The last one I think I could have avoided...but I still don't like folding an overpair at these stakes...even though it seems self-evident that he has a set.
One of the hands I bummed myself on I've posted on the DUPS forum and I'll post it again here. For a while after I thought I'd made the right move, but I think now that it was shitness...but I'm going to post it here anyway. According to an odds calculator I'm behind to his draw...I read him as weak because he'd raised a lot of people with draws and shit all in the hands I'd seen him play, but that still doesn't justify my shitness.

Soooooo conclusion is PT is fun and helpful even if I can't figure out what some of the knobs, bells and whistles do yet. I was up $25 over 560 hands before I started getting bummed. I was happy with that....then it all went tits up in the next 150. 4 hands of horrific outdraws then a couple of me tilting/playing moronically - see above. Although...almost all the money I've lost, I've lost on AA :-P I think I'll just have to start folding it and re-raise 66 and J8s instead.
I am +ev at life.
Gambon is a fish.
Isaac will win the next DUPS tourney.
