Starting to Play some Volume Online

So, I have generally dropped down to 8-10 tables, but I have managed to play 10k hands online for the first time ever over the past 5 days and it is going ok. PLO has huge variance, so obviously this is no sign of long-term results but it is encouraging and I am enjoying playing online for the first time in a long time:

Lol @ $9/h, but it is more about working on my game in terms of BB/100 and slowly moving up.

In addition, I have made $177 in bonuses and FPPs (I play the 235 sattelite hyperturbos for fun whenever I have enough of them at the end of a session). I've quickly come to learn that online play is mainly about volume and bonuses supplementing a much lower winrate than live play. Not as profitable as my live game and I doubt it ever will be, but hopefully it is a better long-term plan.

    Humour is not your strong suit.

    Not a long term life plan. A long term poker plan. Online is much tougher than live obviously. Plan is to work on my game as a bit of a fun project until I am multitabling a normal limit with a decent bb/100. My winrate this year live is 85/h (thank you variance and deepstacked edmonton poker). I would be happy with half that as an hourly rate if I didn't have to spend any more time in casinos.

    How so? I'm always up for some introspection.

    You know Jim, this doesn't even make sense. You don't know the man. You tell him to get a F@#$ ing job and I point out to u he is a doctor. Can you even comprehend how many years he spent in school?

    Your rants with him are getting a little boring and not worthy of my time anymore.
