Starting a log here as I start to regrind a bankroll from 50nl, hopefully will be able to keep the log going and move upwards as it goes. Most poker logs just fall by the wayside on here so hopefully I can change that. It's so easy to post up when things are going well but I like everyone else can't be bothered writing anything when you have had a bad session so no promises on that.
I started off the year with a bankroll >$10k but a very bad start to the year (-$5k) and losing interest a bit of interest in poker due to this made me want to get motivated to start playing again. I withdrew the rest of my roll and left myself €885 in my Neteller account so put this back into a new account today and hopefully can regrind from there at $50nl.
I just bought a new screen this week as well, a ultra high definition so will be able to keep all my tables on the one screen. Should be delivered tomorrow so will post up a photo of my new set up then. I don't intend on mass mutlitabling for the first part of this as I havn't played 50nl in probably nearly 3 years so want to get used to the games first. I don't want to be too aggro and keep getting it in too light so will try and figure out some of the players first.
Bankroll wise I have about $1.2k depending on euro currency so I should be comfortable enough. I have about $400 rb due from last month but most likely will just cash it out unless I get off to a very bad start. I will try and use my experience from having played 100ks hands at higher stakes to get back up to 100nl as soon as I can.
I did play for almost an hour this evening and won a couple of dollars (quite literally), the plan for this log is to post up some of the more intersting hands from the session and a graph with stats at the end. So without further adue:

saw flop | saw showdown
BB ($50)
UTG ($50)
MP ($50.20)
CO ($102.50)
Hero (Button) ($50)
SB ($72.18)
Preflop: Hero is Button with J, 4
3 folds, Hero bets $1.50, 1 fold, BB calls $1
Flop: ($3.25) 9, 4, 4 (2 players)
BB checks, Hero bets $2.50, BB calls $2.50
Turn: ($8.25) Q (2 players)
BB checks, Hero bets $6.50, BB raises $13, Hero calls $6.50

Total pot: $100.25
Results:
Hero had J, 4 (three of a kind, fours).
BB had 9, 9 (full house, nines over fours).
Outcome: BB won $97.25
Made a new database in HEM so had no stats/reads at all. Basically thought his range was like A4, 45, 64, 74, 34, 99 some bluffs, couldn't rule out a bad player going mental with Q9 or so either. I don't intend on folding turn ever but river could be a fold, but without any reads I was folding trips on this board.

From some of the low stakes HH I've read on here a lot of the players at this level would say to fold this, the BB had been really aggro on the small sample so far, was playing 30/25 with 25% 3b over about 50ish hands so was happy enough to shove here. SB was pretty nitty but sample was too small to make any proper judgement.
Graph and stats below, I will really be trying to work on improving my red line. Stats are loose but these will get tighter as I increase the amount of tables, 5-6 tabling earlier.
