Today was a good day, 18 tourneys and $66 profit. I have a %41.1 ROI and %12 ITM. I've been learning so much when it comes to building huge stacks. I still have trouble with calling ranges when it comes to other big stacks, in particular this hand....

So it's gonna take some time to get used to playing in the money, but overall I understand the game and what I need to do in order to beat it. I'm still working on raise/fold strategy at the final table against big stacks, but I've generally been pretty unsuccessful with it so far. I have done really well with attacking limpers and what range of hands I need inorder to do it. I've tightened up quite abit when it comes to SB & BB shoves against multiple limpers. Also I've been making calls when 3-5 people all go all in and I have 3-6 to 1 odds and a hand like 67o. I'm not sure how good this is but hopefully it will show profit in the long run, anyways heres todays graph
