I have set myself a small challenge.
I intend to play 10 different low stake STT over the next three evenings.
The total stake on my part will be £4.75 and I will see how much profit I can make with the challenge.
I will not be playing them in any particular order.

The ten games I will be playing are as follow.

25p + 05p sit 'n go         -0.30p

30p DYM                       +0.20p

30p twelve player scary  -0.30p

30p top six                   +0.26p

30p 4 player H/U           -0.30p

35p 30 player B/H          +£1.31p in Bounties and £1.80p Prize money.

55p speed                    +£1.70

60p DYM                       +0.40p

60p 10 player B/H          +£1.55 in Bounties + £1.25 Prize money.

£1.15 DYM                    -£1.15

I will post the results of each on this post.

TOTAL SO FAR IS:   £5.47 PROFIT

    Thanks Torry.

    I have made a good start to the challenge with a win in the 35p B/H.
    I started playing this before I put up the thread, which I put on while I was playing.
    I managed to finish in 1st place with £1.31 in bounties and £1.80 in prize money.
    I gave out four bad beats to the other players on the final table to win it.
    The poker gods were watching me with this one I think.

     I still think playing in a 60010 player bounty hunter is not a good option

    2nd game down. Cashed in the 30p DYM game. What a rollercoaster ride those games are.
    Thanks Talon, I have edited the post.

    3rd game played, a 30p scary. Out in 5th.
    Run my pocket pair into a bigger pocket pair. Just one of those things.

    4th and last game this evening. A 60p DYM game which I won. More profit into the kitty.
    I will start again about 6.30 tomorrow evening with another 3 or 4 games.

    Thank scrumdown.
    2nd game tonight, a 30p top six.
    Wow, what a shove fest this tournament is, blinds every 3 minutes so any A and in they all went by most players.
    I did manage to finish 4th for 56p, so a slight profit.

    30p 4 player H/U.
    Made the final table very easily then my K K got called by 10 4 o/s who managed to hit 2 pair.
    What can you do when that happens. Keep smiling, I suppose.

    55p speed.
    Played only one hand in the first 3 levels.
    Then started getting nice starting hands and went on to win the £2.25 1st prize.

    Last game, 25p + 05p.
    I was under the impression that this was going to be a slow game with 10 minutes blinds.
    Not a chance, players putting in big raises and all-ins all over the place.
    My trip 4's got called by a flush draw on the turn after a pot+ sized bet at hit and I came 4th.

    The thing I have learnt from this challenge is that my overall game is in pretty good shape.
    I have just got to avoid the 30p games where the bingo players seem to inhabit.
    3 of the 4 games I didn't cash in were 30p games.

    My final total was a healthy profit of £5.47 which is a good return on my part.
