Will my winnings ever catch my EV again?

So I had a day off from cards, and was itching to get some time in today. So far I've had 2 sessions, each about 2 hours longs. Here's my tracker stats for the day.


















Pretty decent right? I mean a 14bb/100 winrate is definitely okay, but here's the thing. This was my worst running day yet. I'm stone cold, unreal, can't win with a massive % lead to save my chips. Here's my EV for the day.














My EV ended at +750bb for the day, and my actual was +326bb. I ended today 424bb short of where I was supposed to. These days keep going, but I've been fortunate enough to be still sticking some bank onto my roll at least. So for the week, I'm running 651bb cold for now. I'm gonna need some KK's to beat AA's and not the way it went today where my AA didn't hold, to make up for these shenanigans.

Not bad, my EV winrate for this week is 35.28bb/100. Pretty much what I ran today also. I'm definitely a fan of being a calling station here, cuz it's helping my bankroll pretty well. That's it for now. I plan on playing a few more hours later, and maybe I'll tear it up and actually win as well, that'd be sweet.

The newest play I use, and I still can't believe it works, is the jam pots with the nuts on the river and stack people. It's amazing, and this hand has got to be my favorite one yet. I absolutely just crammed my quad 10's right down this guy's throat and he took it like a champ!



















For those of you wondering what he felt compelled to call the river bet with, he had AQ. Top pair top kicker. That's how easy it is to take their money, and I can't imagine how much I was leaving on the table by trying to peddle the nuts for bets that made sense in comparison to the pot. Let me repeat, this is not an uncommon way for this hand to play out at these tables. Insane!!!!!

One last thing, here's a snapshot of all my hands for the last couple months.
